Not a bad place for a short stay. Very basic rooms, but still ok. Just feeling it's age and could do with an update reno. But still a pleasant enough stay for an ok price. Close to mall, Casino and shops/dining.

Literally left 4 hours after checking in (3 of those hours we had gone out to an event). Our room was musty and the aircon would not cool it down. It smelled like an ashtray. Instead of having a nice little staycation we drove 40 minutes back home and showered because we could still smell the room on us. The guy at the front desk offered a fab and said they did have to use an ozone machine previously so clearly it’s an ongoing issue. 0/10 would not recommend staying here.

Exactly what I was looking for. Neat, convenient, easy. Felt clean but could be more tidy. Mattress could do with an upgrade.

The room was large but dated and a little worse for wear. It was clean but gloomy. I didn't want to spend time in it.
