endroit paisible et idéal pour visiter la région
Pros:

Lieu paisible, parfait pour visiter cette belle région d'Australie. la propreté est parfaite, le petit déjeuner est bon. Si vous restez plus de 3 nuits il faut penser a demander a l'accueil un complément pour les autres déjeuner. Tout se fait en autonomie, mais il faut veiller a bien anticiper : vous avez besoin d'un code pour ouvrir la porte de l'appartement et si vous n'avez pas calé cela avant d'arriver, et si surtout vous arrivez la nuit, cela n'est pas forcement simple. surtout si vous avez un accès limité a la téléphonie australienne (e sim avec data et appels).
