Fully self contained studio unit under family home close to Showgrounds
A wonderful place & people! It was truly fully self-contained. Even with access to the family washing machine & clothes line. It felt like a home away from home for us :) And a HUGE BONUS for me (with chemical sensitivities) was NO PERFUMES OR 'AIR FRESHENERS'! Nor 'fragranced' linen or blankets! ...

Empire Apartment Hotel
Large apartment with everything needed for a much more comfortable stay than a standard hotel/ motel room. We did get a discounted price though which influenced our choice as the normal advertised price was much higher.
