Abode Belconnen
Convenient stay for a family of five. Comfortable beds and access to two bathrooms was great. Supermarket directly across road was helpful. This was our second stay here this year and we will definitely return again.

Luxurious Apt with Serene Lake Views
Communication through email and SMS made it tricky to keep up. The black colour made the space seem small Curtains need to be double in width to keep the light out. The unit was clean but wipe marks were present on mirror, cupboards and benches. Not keen on the key system.
