Staff are so friendly and informative about what there is to do around the Tablelands. We stayed in one of the private rooms with aircon and it was really clean. Showers were amazing. The area in which you cook/eat, hangout and toilets were always spotless. Would recommend to anyone, and planning our next stay already!
