If the location suits then this is a good place to stay.
Pros:

The property was near the golf course we were playing. Other than that the location was not great to visit other Canberra tourist sites. Although we didn't use it, the room had full cooking facilities and a dishwasher.

An excellent choice of property overall in this area with easy access to the city & would stay again
Pros:

Room was a good size, kitchenette facilities good, loved having a washing machine and dryer. Bed was comfortable. I liked that they had a convenience pantry available for purchases and also a cabinet where you could restock your own tea/coffee, get extra towels etc as you needed them. The location was fabulous with a McDonalds at the end of the driveway and 2 shopping centres across the road. Lots of dining options within short walking distance.

Cons:

Bathrooms were clean and modern but the grout in the shower had mould coming through that looked like it just needed a good scrub.

Was down for kanga cup, cudnt find alternative accommodation. So had to manage with what was offered. Canberra was full
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Poor service. Bad stench in the initial room. Dishwasher overflowed. Maintenance guy didn’t show up for 2 days. Had to clean dishwasher by myself. Broken sink tap, pinched finger trying to open nd close tap in the sink, as had to do dishes manually, due to dishwasher overflowing. Hotel says green clean without chemicals, but the cleaner mentioned he can get rid of the bad smell but adding more chemicals.
