    Location was ok, nice little view of the Lake & not far to get to town centre. Modern kitchen obviously upgraded. Enough space not to be cramped. Everything worked as expected!

    Very helpful staff. Gave us the keys much earlier. Clean, spacious, with lake view. Quiet neighbourhood. Has all the facilities. It is 15mins walk to the lake, but here it is very quiet. We did not like the central part of the town.

    The view from the lounge room was exceptional. We were able to sit on the balcony in the late afternoon and enjoy the view of the lake. The kitchen was nicely appointed and had everything we needed to cook. The beds were very comfortable. ...
