The room was good, breakfast pretty bad, tea and toast was the only good thing there. Bed was comfortable are the room was quiet. Would look for other alternatives next time.

Quest Ballarat
Clean rooms. The room I was in the bathroom was nothing special but you have everything you need in the room. I rate it, I’ll be going back. Parking on site is not ideal. It’s shared with the apartments out back, so first in first served otherwise street parking is your only option.
