This property seems caught in the 1979's. The welcome at the front desk was warm. The one-bedroomed apartment had limited parking. The apartment was comfortable with a large bed in the bedroom and smaller bed in the lounge. There were facilities to make your own breakfast. The bathroom was quite basic with a floor which needed a steam clean. The shower was surprisingly good but the water drained away very slowly. All-in-all a comfortable stay with prices that don't match the amenities.

While most staff were absolutely lovely, my room had stab marks and slashes in the wall as well as smears of something red brown coloured on the walls as well as hairs still under the toilet seat and scum all over the shower, the mini fridge was disgusting and I had to pay a $200 deposit on a $122 dollar room that was putrid. And I honestly feel this review is generous and forgiving.

The room and bathroom were clean and spacious. Both in need of a revamp, but not a consideration for not staying. Receptionist was fantastic. Extremely hospitable and accommodating. Good value but a lot of street noise. Probably would stay again.

Slow service, slow internet, dints in walls, a $200 bond that was not shown on the booking before arrival, bad location and locals that wanted to get into our room, their bar is just one mini fridge with a slab of drinks in it.

Room was cold, so hard to get to sleep. No microwave oven. Needs more path from car to room (room 4) to avoid having to walk across dirt path. Had to ask for milk. No biscuits!
