Comfortable, spacious and the setup we needed. Tv did not work in the kitchen most of the time & a few with allergies suffered from a reaction to the dust.

Ballarat getaway
The rooms and the kitchen space were great but I was disappointed that there were not a sitting area we could all
Seat together at the end of the day , and the shower was not wheelchair accessible made our stay challenging
