Our room smelt like cigarettes, had a cigarette burn in the curtain, drains were blocked and not clean, toilet didn’t flush properly, floors not clean, blood on the small shower head, slap dash Reno job, everything was a little bit broken/not working properly. Some guy was yelling outside of my room quite aggressively at someone? I’m assuming on the phone? Bedding was clean and bed was comfortable. $20 parking. Wouldn’t recommend

The curtains in my room were broken at the top and the bright neon sign outside the window was shining in the room all night which made it very hard to sleep. We arrived at night time and found the car park very hard to navigate and ended up in the laundry area, all in all just felt a little disjointed.

The room was relatively neat and tidy. However it did not have a microwave despite saying it would on the website, I couldn’t access any apps on the TV, and the shower head fell off the wall when I tried lifting it. I called reception (who again didn’t answer) and left a message to this effect, however did not get a call back. I repeatedly called the restaurant to order room service but no one answered and had to ask reception to call them. Luckily I was checking out the following day as I would definitely want another room with amenities that I paid for.

The room was neat, tidy, and modern, offering a great view from the window. Its proximity to public transport and being just a short distance from the city made it very convenient. However, I was not informed about ongoing renovations prior to my stay. That said, the pool and newly renovated areas looked fantastic. One area for improvement would be the front entrance—if it were renovated for better accessibility, it would significantly enhance the property's overall presentation and make it more inviting.

The property doesn’t hide the fact that it is under renovation but given the impact of the renovations, it really is over priced. The bathroom was mouldy and badly cleaned. This isn’t acceptable at the price they charged. My night’s sleep was badly disturbed by the air conditioner making a huge amount of noise at 3am which really alarmed me. I had to turn it off and of course it took ages to get back to sleep. Very disappointing experience and not recommended.

What once was a classic motel is undergoing renovations. Our double bed was to 3/4 singles pushed together. Fell thru the crack and my feet off the end of bed. Horrible stains on carpet. Worst thing was the air con from adjacent room shuddered on every ten minutes. It was hell. Maybe in a year it will be transformed. Seems to be a halfway house now.
