The property and our room was very clean, neat and tidy. I was very impressed how roomy it was with a very cosy kitchenette. I would've liked to have access to the laundry room 24/7, but I found a laundromat just up the road. We were there for a volleyball competition but unfortunately by the time I was ready to do the laundry to wash the uniforms for the next days competition we couldn't access it. Apart from that I will surely be returning if we have other competitions at the Runaway Bay Indoor Stadium.
