In terms of location - perfect! I was there to watch netball at the arena and you couldn't ask for more! Walkable distance - check! Nearby cafes - check! Fantastic staff - check! The only hiccup was accessing the free parking (not obvious)... you need to park nearby first, and check-in to have a staff member show you free parking spaces - once you're in the know - perfect!
