I would stay here again.
Pros:

We got the house and it was very clean, the amenities, exactly what was shown in the pics

Big back yard that gets great amount of sunlight

Perfect space for a group of 6 of us, ample amount of space around the house to relax on your own

Check in check out was super easy with the staff

Cons:

The aircon filters need a clean but other than that, everything about the 3 bedroom house was great!

It’s personal preference but if you don’t like soft thin pillows, I recommend you take your own which I did.

Despite the things, it did not affect our stay in a negative way but thought I’ll mention it

We would stay there again for the location was great.
Pros:

Close to our function. Public transport at the front door. Meals very good and the staff were very good from when we arrived to when we left.

Cons:

More hooks to hang clothes in shows and the water on the floors of the showers. On the roadside the windows could be double glazed to cut down road noise.

A night better spent in the airport on the floor !
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

The place was filthy, stuff unfriendly, room without proper ventilation , shared bathroom was dirty. The queen room I booked for 130 AUD/night was extreme noisy , on request to change to a less noisy room I got a single bed room and was promised a refund of the price difference 40 or 30 AUD (the stuff was not sure how much) and I'm still waiting for the refund confirmation not to talk about the refund itself.

Pros:

Good location and the bar and facilities were nice

Cons:

Member of staff opening my hotel door at 1am and waking me up because someone else had locked themselves out and he got confused with my room. Honestly should get the whole fee refunded for it. Imagine that had been a single woman. Terrible mistake and I had a bad night sleep because of it
