William

Disliked: Staff & service
We arrived to check in at around 6pm only to be told that our room was damaged and that they did not have a room for us. They said that Wotif would be in touch to organise alternative accomodation (which was a disaster in itself). When asked why we were not notified earlier the receptionist said that he was notifying us now and that it was our bad luck. Absolute disgrace. Avoid this place.

Just ok, noisy

The room was fine. It is located on a major street and unfortunately I had a room closest to the street (likely because I booked through a 3rd party). The street noise was quite loud, even using a white noise app. Was difficult to sleep.

This is was a terrible choice. Unsafe, parking area dimly lit & appeared to be a “1 hour motel”.undesirable people walking around The parking area and hanging out in front.
