Very clean, excellent communication from host. Perfect location. I was very impressed with the bathroom supplies, not the silly little throw away tubes of hand wash. Check in had quiet a few steps but it all made sense and I recommend watching the very helpful youtube video that was made to help with the check in process. Canberra itself is a lovely city with so many free things to see and do with family. We will be back, absolutely.
