Great location, short drive to city or to get back on freeway. Disappointed the price advertised was not the same I paid at the property, a difference of $20 as we checked in on a public holiday. On arrival no sign on reception to say we had to go to bar to check in. We booked as required wifi for night. Could not connect as said their hotspot had error & to sign in. Went to bar to enquire, no sign in needed should be auto & as no management on site. no one could sort the wifi. Odd for a busy Easter weekend. Bar was busy with people & a ton of pokies for those that like that. Room was good, just pity on service & additional cost, a dollar or 2 you can understand $20 not so much
