So comfortable, clean, with a breakfast basket and late check in possibilities. The access to koalas is unprecedented. What a great place. The only downside is the poor signal/wifi/phone connection but that is not something the facility can do anything about. ##### Hana Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Madeline 27 Dec 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Great room, clean, spacious and wonderful air con.
