Pros:

2 bedrooms, kitchen was well equipped.
Walkable to servo for snacks. We only need it for a bed, so that was fine.

Cons:

Nothing, really. It was simple but had what we needed. The fans are a bit old and noisy as was the aircon. Pillows were too big for us, but would suit someone who likes a big pillow. Just small personal preferences.

Comfortable stay with friendly staff and great pool within 20 -30 minute walk to CBD
Pros:

Swimming pool was lovely. Room booked in advance had washer and dryer which was necessary after my Off-Road tour.

Cons:

The building and rooms are tired but bedding was comfortable and rooms and linen were fresh and clean. All in all reflected by the value for money.
