Exceeded all expectations this place! We travel around heaps in Australia and overseas but I think this place is the cleanest place we have stayed at. So convenient, the cafe/restaurant/bar was like 15m from our room. Meals start at about 6or7am and go right through the day and into the night. Friendly and helpful staff. Great indoor heated pool with 2x spas and a sauna. Indoor gym, pickle ball court, pool table, foosball table and 2 table tennis tables. Will definitely stay here next time we come to Ballarat!
