We found this place to be preferable to a hotel because it is so well equipped. For example the kitchen has everything needed to self cater. It is not a hotel so staff are not there 24/7 however we found the staff to be welcoming and very helpful. It is also in an ideal situation placed close to many attractions.... More

We stayed here with our 2 kids, just for one night on our way passing through Canberra. When we booked we booked it as a one bedroom apartment with a pull-out sofa, but when we got there we actually had a 2 bedroom apartment, with full kitchen, separate lounge, separate dining etc. It was extremely spacious, clean and very well...

We spent a week at this place and actually felt quite at home. What set the right tone was that in addition to instructions emailed to us earlier, on the day we were due to check in we received a text message confirming that they were expecting us and giving us our security codes to get into the building and...

I stayed for 2 weeks in a unit the advertising blurb described as a standard studio. Our unit was located in an older style building and was fairly small but very well maintained and I had an enclosed courtyard area which was a nice touch (although it was a little chilly for outdoors in September). The furniture appeared to be... More

Booked a Larger Studio unit in Griffith for 4 nights for my son and myself. Given the choice when I made the booking over the phone if I would like a double and single or a double and a pull out sofa which was nice. Enough room for us and it was great having a small kitchen to cook dinner.... More

We stayed at the 2BR unit in Ainslie for a week with our 2 young children. It was very cold and smelled damp. The bathroom ceiling fan was so dusty that when you turned it on little bits of dust fell on the floor. The quilt covers were not particularly clean nor was the shower. The bathroom curtain was dirty,... More

STAY AWAY!!! My children and I arrived at dinner time to this "spacious studio" to discover an extremely cold room - smaller than most hotel rooms - and an air-conditioner that didn't work. That was apart from the leaky fawcett in the bathroom and unpleasant odour in the room and corridor! I contacted "reception" and it would take at least... More

We very much regret that Travelling Mum was unhappy with our accommodation offerings. Our records show that she did not actually stay with us but left within a few minutes of arrival. We also regret that she considered our personnel to be rude and unhelpful as we place a very high priority on client service and insist on our people... More

Canberra - What a great place to go to and what a great find for accommodation.

Before Booking the price was $260 online. When I called they said it was $320 and so I went back online to book at a cheaper rate but they had already changed it. The 2BR only has 3 plates and glasses, not well serviced. Very old looking. NO bbq onsite only a george foreman grill. Pool was dirty on the... More

We offer top of the range budget accommodation, which is well-located and spotlessly clean, at a very competitive tariff. We monitor rates for equivalent accommodation very closely and always strive to offer best value for money in the Canberra market. Rates change frequently depending upon the overall booking situation and we apologise for the frustration about this rate change. We... More
