We had a small issue with our tv which couldn’t be rectified straight away. The manager came up and offered us a change of rooms or a free breakfast which was lovely. We took the free breakfast which was a blessing. I also really loved the location which is so central to many other places we went to in Toowoomba. What a beautiful city Toowoomba is!!
