Overall the stay was good, great views and the room layout was flexible for 3 people. However I felt it was quite poor to have bars of soap with no area to have it sit on both the bathroom and kitchen. A hand soap pump would have been a lot better. Also has a sachet of dishwashing liquid and 1 toilet roll - this felt very cheap.

The property is okay, with a Woolworth just across the street and river in walking distance. The services are very basic, staff are amateur with no customer service experience, you have to ask every time you need something. Besides there is no phone in the room and you have to go downstairs every time you need something. The air conditioning is centrally controlled and is not comfortable most of the time with no control from the room. The staff miss basic things for instance we had booked and paid for a cot for our baby which was not set up for us. Cleaners missed our room a couple of times. We asked for a garbage bag from reception and they simply said we do not have them here and cleaning staff have left! Do not recommend, with this price you can find better options.

The location and availability of parking were excellent, but the main issue during my stay was cleanliness. My daughter’s toy fell on the floor and went under the bed. When I reached for it, the area was disgusting, full of litter, hair, and lots of dust. It looked like no one had cleaned the floor in a long time. The carpet in the dining room in front of the TV was really a mess, with lots of spots and tears. The beds in the bedrooms moved around because there was no lock option on the wheels, causing them to slip on the flat ceramic floor. Imagine sleeping at night and having your bed move just after rolling over.

The property it self is good, cleanliness is good. Communication was a bit hard. I was traveling with my wife and I use her Credit Card to be used for the payment and incidentals cause I lost mine both cards are under in one account. Before my flight I received a note from the hotel that I can’t used my wife’s card, I was ordered to fill up 3rd party documents and send back to the hotel, after all I received an email saying it is no longer allowed anymore, I offered another card under my name but was refused. I don’t really get the sense of it!!! After all front desk took one of my room mate credit card who came an hour earlier because of our time of flight arrival. I’m confused and don’t know what are they logically protecting. It incurred me more than hundred of dollars of phone call just to solve the none sense problem.
