My partner and I visited from Mildura for the weekend and we were extremely happy with our choice to stay here. The staff were all so friendly and welcoming, perfect location and close to everything we wanted to go and do, the room was nice and tidy and I was really happy my car was locked up and secure of a night time. Will definitely stay here again next time we visit Adelaide/Glenelg!
