The freezer was too tiny to store ice cream! Otherwise the kitchen overall was okay. We liked having the sheets changed daily, & kitchen bin emptied daily. General air-conditioning, ceiling fan & opening windows gave a good choice of air flow options depending on the temperature. Comfortable & clean.

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.
