Excellent option for a Canberra trip
Our family of four stayed at the Braddon classic for a week-long holiday in Canberra. It was very clean and very comfortable- especially the beds and pillows! Great base to explore, as well as a comfortable place to hang out when you need to relax.

Quick Weekend at the Braddon Classic
The property owner was super quick at responding from the get go, which was nice as we had made a spur of the moment late decision the night before travelling from Newcastle to Canberra. Even the morning of leaving when I realised I had only booked for 1 night instead of 2 the host was very accomodating ensuring me there was no hassle in extending the extra night even offering us a late check out which was also amazing. We arrived late at night after a long evenings travel in storms and heavy rain most of the way and it was instant delight as soon as we entered. The house was immaculate, shower pressure was fantastic and the beds were super comfortable. The Braddon classic had everything we needed and was in such a fantastic location. We will definitely return again!
