Check in was spontaneously quick. The property layout is well designed, freshly maintained and has easy, yet, direct and roomy parking acess outside your room. Whilst the room, bathroom and facilities exceeded our expectations an outstanding feature for us was the quietness of the the Panasonic airconditiong system. Commendation to the room cleaning staff for outstanding service. Well done team. All the best. Graeme and Carol. Glenelg SA
