Great Stay
We had a great stay at Majura House. Great location and had everything we needed. Roomy, clean and in a quiet location. Great communication with host, answering questions very quickly. A great home away from home. No hesitation in recommending to others or staying again when visiting Canberra.

Great stay
We had a brilliant time at this easy, convenient home. The kids enjoyed cycling in the safe and quiet surrounds. The plants around the house give it great privacy and a nice outlook through the windows.

Clean and well equipped
Friendly communication, easy check-in. The house was clean amd well equipped. For four people it was fine, seven would be a tight squeeze. The sofa could have an update, but all in all we enjoyed our stay.

Some changes needed
House was lovely but there were a couple of items which could be better. The shower door kept coming off the runner when you tried to close it. The pillows were very cheap and didn't provide any support. Would have been nice if there had been a couple if sachets of tea available. Towel rail in bathroom came off wall as very cheap and not well made. Other than that the house was quite nice.

Majors House
Good location, clean, a bit dated. Lounge large size and comfortably accommodated 5 people. Good vibe. TV on the small size but got used to it very quickly. Kitchen comfortable, well equipped and clean. Unable to close door (about 20cm) of second twin without moving beds.
