Located pretty nicely in the city, short drive to beach and the CBD. Kitchen is nice enough, Showers leave a little to desire but are okay. Pool is good. They have like a TV room for kids i think. Have washing machines coin operated. My big issue with the place is the Bats very very noisy in the morning, but that's not really the parks fault. Bats will bat.
