Room was neat and tidy - bathroom was great. Breakfast selection ie alternative milks you had to ask for - ran out of certain foods and didn’t have any supply in next day either. Jams would have been nicer in their own individual packets - not hygienic enough.

Room was approx $400 per night. When we arrived we were told to pay another $15 per day for parking or park on the street. I questioned why paying for parking wasn’t an option when booking the room. Desk clerk advised Wotif is an “American third party and we don’t know what they offer”. The restaurant includes large screen coverage of horse racing and off track betting and clients who are there to bet and drink. The food was “pub fare” and over cooked. Minimal service offered. Bar staff sneezed on glasses and said she has hayfever. Room was comfortable although air conditioner was noisy. I thought it was a car alarm outside. A card was left in the room from the previous guest thanking them and gifting a bottle of wine. Housekeeping was hit and miss. The hotel is not located close to any restaurants, shops etc so reliant on TV for entertainment. Free to air channels the only option with a picture that repeatedly pixelated. Wifi was slow at best and repeatedly dropped out. At $400 per night we left feeling we had been ripped off. I can only suggest booking elsewhere. This place was awful.
