Disappointed our room was not made up during our stay. The carpet hadn’t been vacuumed between visitors as it was visibly dirty. Hallways were dirty and would have rubbish on them during the day. Heated pool was barely tolerable, it was so cold. Pillows were not suitable and beds were soft.

Great staff. Everyone helpful and accommodating. The air conditioning in the room was noisy through the night. My biggest issue was the bedding. Two flat sheets covering a soiled duvet does not do it for me. Overall a good stay.

Very spacious room with comfortable bedding. Common areas could be cleaner (hallways) where guests walk - needed a vacuum and dishes removed etc. A very central location with helpful staff and good on site facilities.

Having arrived from a late flight issue in Melbourne at 1.45am i was pleased to have a room waiting. My stay was short, as I was up at 7.00am and out of the Hotel around 8.00am. The room had everything that was needed. Thank you for accommodating my late arrival. (Early morning arrival)

On check in our room had a really bad odour. After goong down to reception, tje gentleman behind the counter firstly said there was nothing that could be done After arguing with him, he offered a room upgrade to a king with a sofa bed We were told, that we would have to pull the bed out. The room we had booked had two queens. As it was myself and my teen age daughter, all i wanted was a room with two beds. After another discussion, Eventually, tje manager came out and found the same room and out us in it. The shower was broken and the buffet breakfast was cold and it took 25mims for some items to be replenished.
