    View’s Amazing, room is starting to be a bit dated, quiet a unpleasant odor when entering the apartment, from the laundry section. I forgot to make a comment at reception. I did have to ask for fresh towels on the night of the second day, they didn’t arrive so I had to ring reception again at 8.00pm that evening. We had three nights, a bit disappointed with the breakfast facility, the same menu every day, no variety. Banana muffins only every morning, needs to be changed every other day. Same breakfast for three mornings... Overall quite a pleasant experience. …

    Great unit with spectacular view from the huge balcony. Comfortable bed and equipped kitchen. Wonderful, friendly hosts with good ideas what to do in town and in the area. Be prepared to drive up or take a AUD7.00 cab from town since it is a long uphill climb to the place which is the price you pay for that view. Well worth the price.…
