My wife and I would like to point out that the young man in reception, was wonderful. He couldn't have been more helpful, and so polite and friendly. We were expecting budget hotel, and that's what we got. The bed was comfortable and shower had good pressure and temperature. Nothing at all to complain about. Thanks.

This is a dog box of a place with very awkward rooms where the shower and toilet is in a box in the corner, right away from the hand basin. Feels very crammed in and way too expensive for what it is. Not very easy to get to the airport with luggage from this place. Will be avoiding.

The hotel looks far and across the highway when first seen walking from the airport, however, there's a safe and convenient road to it once you find it alongside the McDonald's and is just a 10 min. walk. The room was clean but the raised toilet/shower stall reminded me of one that you may come across on a train. No complaints on water pressure or temperature as it was excellent. The room served it's purpose as a place for a quiet & safe night's sleep before a 7am flight the next morning.

Not visible from the airport buildings, poor conflicting signage. I had to get from international arrivals to the hotel after 1.30am in the morning. Ended up catching a taxi as nobody available to give decent directions. Cost me another $40 for the taxi! Don't get me started on the toilet/shower portacom within the room. I was out of there by 7am. Aircon didn't work, only blew hot air, so woken by the traffic.
