All was excellent, we arrived early and had booked night before so everything ready and a lovely room. Free bottle of wine and goodies was a nice touch. Everything worked and everything was comfortable and friendly. Good bus service into Sydney town a short walk away and lots of shops and eateries nearby in a quieter but well catered for area. Nearby bay walkable lovely for a morning coffee watching the water.
