Small but adequate room. The restaurant really let this place down. Food was awful - tasteless and expensive for what it was. The main course took ages to come and the veges while nicely presented were undercooked and the lamb unseasoned. Weirdly, we couldn't pay for it that night as no staff could take the money, however at 0530 am the staff could. It was convenient to where we were going.

I found the staff welcoming and the room was all that I needed. Loved the peek of the Harbour from my window. Really like that you could open a window and get fresh air. The best thing was their Etaon Mess dessert.

Stayed 2nights for a sports tournament. Just what we needed for a rest in the evenings. New World close by too for essentials. Parking our ute was our main reason for selecting Atura which was great. We opted for the eco (no-housekeeping) in return for the $10 credit which we used for coffees upon checkout. Overall very happy.

The Atura was easily accessed via the motorway and close to my conference facility. It was also convenient to the supermarket. The communal hallways smelled air-freshened. However, the room (913) would benefit from a deep clean rather than a superficial service. There was evidence of grease marking on the kitchenette bench. The extra blankets were clearly dumped in the drawers by the last guest, there were blood splatters and mould on the walls of the bathroom and a thick build-up of dust particularly around the carpet line and skirtings, along with slopped coffee or water or similar. I did wonder if the toilet was cleaned before or after my fresh towels were hung (on a rail directly adjacent to the toilet) as the toilet seat was up on arrival. I understood on arrival that I could use the no daily service vouchers against my room cost only to discover on departure that I could only use it on food or beverages (which I did not require). I also encountered another guest on arrival who was requesting a full room service due to the filthy state of it. Check in staff asked him to clarify the elements that required attention - his response was "all of it". On arrival to my room, it appeared that this is a consistent issue and that most guests probably wouldn't mention it to staff but reflect it in ratings. Would I stay at Atura again? No. I'd stay in accommodation that I have previously that was cleaner. I'd Uber to and from a conference facility instead of staying at the Atura.

I was quoted $124 as per Expedia and the charges was more than $230 - which I had to pay as the booking was confirmed already and would have penalized myself into paying the full amount anyway. The bathroom mirror was dirty, the shower was wet inside with cleaning liquid still on the floor and slippery, the bed was not made properly and the linen smelled dusty. As per the advert, there was suppose to be air-conditioning in the room, but there was not and having to open the windows for cool air it allowed noise from the outside. The food was very good and of very good quality. Really enjoyed the breakfast and the coffee. Not very happy about the charges and the cleanliness of the rooms.
