Unbelievable
This place is out of a magazine. Just beautiful! It’s clean, bright & the decor is just right. Plenty of space to move about. It is well maintained inside & out. Who gets a garage to use on Verbo. It even has a dryer which most places in Bacchus Marsh & Darley do not have. This place is close to town & the railway system. Even restaurants. The hostess is so accommodating!!

Great location
All was immaculate.
Immaculate presentation. Beds very comfortable, but only queen size. Heating was good even in a very cold spell. Easy access to keys, and garage access makes parking no problem. Central location. Was busy on the road outside due to sport and a Saturday event, but no disturbance to us.
