Short business trip to Canberra
Excellent location as only a few minutes walk to the convention centre. Staff were excellent in every respect. Only downer was still a very noisy site despite being on the 14th floor and woke up at 6am to a huge crane outside the apartment on the last morning. Other than that this is a top location for anyone thinking of staying in Canberra CBD
