The Burke & Wills is a very long way from a 4 Star establishment. Our room was the most expensive " Spa Room " ( with the current water restrictions you are asked not to waste water by using the spa you have just paid extra to have !!)With the views of neighboring rusting roof tops and crumbling fixtures and... more
