Great location. Bear in mind this property appears to predominantly serve business stays. Would benefit from local competition to minimise minor shortcomings

Great place to stay
Amazing place to stay. We always try different places around the lake. But we will definitely be back, just a shame you could hardly see the lake from our ‘Lakeview’ room but that’s ok.

Bed was amazing, so comfortable. We stayed on the lower ground floor which had a external gate on the balcony for easy access leaving & not having to go back through reception area. View of park & lake across the road. Will definitely consider staying here again in the future. Thank you

My wife and our 10 day old son and I stayed here for one night to attend a funeral. We flew from Brisbane and the funeral was at 2pm. As checkin was not until 2pm and we were arriving early, we requested an early checkin if available and the staff fully communicated that this is not garaunteed, but they will try to accomodate. When we arrived at 11:30am, they had a room available and we were very grateful for this service. I fully recommend this place and it is very well maintained, parking was easy and secure and the location was excellent. I couldn't recommend this place more given the staff were so accomodating for our needs.

What we love the most about this property is its cleanliness and how spacious it is. We have been staying here on our frequent visits over the years. The only downfall we have found is how bright the rooms are at night, no matter what rooms we have stayed in, its always been the issue, Maybe tinted windows would help!

The apartment was sold as having lake views, but barely at that. Ripped curtains, nearly unusable shower rose and a toilet with a broken button that looked very unsanitary. Airconditioning in one room only - bedroom had a fan, but it was in the middle of the room over nothing but floor, with the bed left to swelter. Don't sell me a luxury apartment if it's not.

Hi Brian, Im sorry that the view was filtered by the foreshore trees and very disappointed that there was maintenance issues that the cleaning staff and past guests had failed to report. They have now been rectified. Im sorry for the inconvenience.
