Half drunk cup of coffee in the Coffee Cupboard was disappointing. Poor Housekeeping! I was told that I could park at my door. So wrong, I had to park about 30 metres away. Cupboard door had a broken hinge. The Bathroom window winder would not close the window. Air conditioning, Netflix & Bed were good Shower was hot. Birds, cockatoos I think, in a tree on the property were very loud for most of my stay.
