Comfortable stay & friendly staff

Our group of 3 had a very comfortable stay in a 1 bedroom unit. It was reasonably spacious with a kitchenette. There is a guest laundry available and is a short walk to some shops and restaurants and nearby a pub, supermarket and wineries. Staff were helpful and friendly.
