The only disappointing thing was we didn't have a view of the Lake that it showed in the picture.
We were able to get into the property earlier which was great.
Lovely quiet spot.

Place was clean. One dining chair had a bolt missing so unsafe to sit on. Left note to have them repair. Didnt like plunger soap containers. Body lotion had seperated. No hair conditioner plunger. Overall location good. Spacious for 2xpeople.

We had a great stay at Balconies in
Daylesford. The room was clean and bright. Waking up to the view of the lake each morning was so peaceful. The Balconies is in a very quiet area close to all amenities that you need with magical lake views. I highly recommend this place.

Getting into the place with the locking system was hopeless, had to contact for assistance. No off street parking.Room was full of dust. First time I have ever stayed at a complex where there was not a pack of tissues. TV set too low that it was difficult to watch from bed. Could not see us staying at this place again

For the cost I expected more. The photos show other rooms, and so that size (especially the bathroom) was what I expected. No parking on site. Room smelt like someone's been smoking in there and a spray was used to cover it up. View was nice (but blocked as we were off to the side. Also didnt help that we were woken up by people laughing and drunk in the other rooms.
