Rod's place is a beautiful, new, comfortable, apartment-style room right in the middle of the restaurant district of Warrnambool. The room was beautifully appointed and had everything we could need and was perfectly positioned. As others have noted, it was a little noisy on the Monday morning (rubbish day and street sweepers in our case), but didn't really affect us at all. There's also a Chinese (?) restaurant across the alley that my wife (with a very sensitive nose) could smell from the room, but I couldn't... Parking is in a public carpark, but it's cheap (by Melbourne standards!) at $3 a day - and we were out exploring most of the time anyway! This place was perfect for us - highly recommended.
