The room was nice and roomy, however the bed only had a bedside light on one side and the fluro light cover fell of the bedroom light fell on us during the night.

Just a quick overnight stay. Cabin was very spacious, clean and tidy.
Georgina, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I have been staying here for a number of years with family. We visit my mother in a nursing home in Redhill. It is a good place for us all to be together and close to the home. I would like to see more kitchen utensils and saucepans.
Lesley, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

The staff are great. Very clean. Quiet people. It was very cold in Winter. The air con didn’t warm the villa well. I would like to visit again. However, Summer and Spring is best. The pool & BBQ area are kept extremely clean.
Slavica, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The bbq facilities were in very good condition. The area around clothes line & laundry untidy. The villas could have more utensils such as can opener, salad bowls & a saucepan. There was limited liquid detergent supplied for kitchen.
Judy, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Close to shops. Room was cold until we got extra heaters
Don, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The major downside is that free wifi is super slow and practically useless. Luckily mobile coverage seems good enough.
Kelvin, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

First time staying here & NEVER, EVER again. Photos of the 2 brm villa on website are extremely deceiving. Is very old, dirty & smelly. Small old air con made the whole villa smell like a fish market. Had to sleep in our track pants & jumpers as the one small putrid smelling old aircon in living area did not heat sufficiently. Living area did not have a sofa as shown in pics on website, only a round dining table with 4 chairs & the tv on wall above. Not a single powerpoint in either of the bedrooms, no bedside tables or bedside light. Bathroom is ancient & awful, dried up white paint all over the towel rail, ventilation via a gap with fly screen at top of bathroom window which lets all the freezing winter cold air in, bathroom door didn't shut properly. A previous guests used towels on the floor of one of the wardrobes. Everything just generally unclean. I could go on but I think you get the idea. Thought it might be a risk staying here & unfortunately I was right!

Ruined our getaway break stove didnt work and it was mt second visit here and my last
Rosemarie, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

Very disappointing. Room was definitely not as pictured. Used tissues behind the bed, mould on ceiling, ant infestation in shower, bench top oven didn’t work, exfoliating glove in place to stop shower leak. Staff were nice and the pool was kept clean, that was a positive.
Natasha, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The unit was clean and everything worked, the only problem was lousy wifi and mobile reception. Very frustrating
Mark, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

No internet for our entire stay No air conditioning and the filter on it looks like it has not been cleaned in years. Thank god it was not 35 degrees as is normal at this time of the year. No information on places to go things to do around Canberra and surrounding area. We were given a wrist band and told we had to wear it the duration of our stay which was 5 days. Spider webs on the roof. My daughter husband and kids all so stayed in one of your rooms, wait till you get her review as her room was totally disgusting. Will we be back next year ? Defiantly Will we book your motel again ? Defiantly not

10/10 Exceptional

Met my needs to stay in Canberra with a car. Had a kitchenette that was fully used.
Yan, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Good but some disappointments

While the room and service were fine, we had problems with the air-conditioner. It was loud, and switched from warm to cold without being programmed to do - problematic in the middle of a Canberra winter. Also, on our departure morning we found water at the base of the fridge, and found it had never been turned on at the power point and had defrosted; this was a problem for us, as we had stored meat and milk in the fridge section, which had gone off and had to be thrown out.

Armando, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

Dirty and disgusting dirty tissues everywhere ...dishes all over the sink surprise surprise manager hasnt called me back
Ashleigh, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

We were disappointed. The pictures indicated a nice place, but it was not. Guests are required to clean glasses/cups that were used.....they were really, really unclean. Towels used by previous guests were left hanging on door hooks. I am not sure that the sheets were changed as they were loose and wrinkled. There were ants in the kitchenette area. Picky? Maybe, but we expect the room to be 'finished'.
Richard, 2-night trip
