Unhappy customer
Unable to get in to property for two and a half hours past check in due to no keys and cleaners arriving after our check in time and cleaning property after owners/ occupants left. Seems they forgot we had booked.
All Garbage bins full to the top and left for us to put out BBQ left dirty. No attempt at reimbursement for the inconvenience of sitting outside in the heat waiting to get in. Noisy location and will not be rebooking in the future.
Great layout and facilities. Little extras like pram, esky and port-a-cot were very handy. Only downside was one toilet and shower that was manageable. Loved the outdoor area for dining/entertaining. Yes we highly recommend this property.

Excellent house with everything you need.
Excellent house and facilities. Lovely and clean. Beds were AMAZINGLY COMFORTABLE.
Close to everything you need and very close to mater hospital. Communications and check in super easy.
Just have a score shy of 5 stars as it can become a little noisy from traffic at peak hour.
But we loved it, and would highly recommend.
