This place is well positioned for a trip to Canberra. We spent over a week here, visiting family and friends, and found our 2 bdr villa a very comfortable home away from home. The villa was stocked well enough for the budget price and staff were very friendly and helpful.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Located in a far flung corner of South Canberra without any particular charm, it felt like we were the only people there, aside from the permanent residents in the static caravans. Hugely disappointed by the fact the pool had been drained - this was the reason we had booked here. The room appeared clean, was very basic, but the bed was comfortable and the shower very powerful.

Look, this is basic accommodation at a very reasonable price, but it is clean and spacious with all the basics. It's away from everything, so be prepared to drive to get to anything. On the plus side, it is quiet and it is the way!
