Wasnt worth what I paid. Been to better for less. Room I got wasnt the room kn the pictures. Shower was crusty and water didnt drain properly. Rat poo in the kitchen cupboarda and the pool was not clean. Also the spa wasnt hot. Reception not manned during weekends so we couldnt get a bath towel and we had to walk all the way to the other hotel for things. Not ideal

Similar to all the other reviews the Oasis Motel is on borrowed time i stayed in 718 a one bedroom unit that faced the pool this can be noisy with family groups until 8.00pm . the unit itself was clean with cooking facilities the negitive was the over-powering stench of the cheap cleaning products used daily , tried having the windows and door open but couldn't escape the smell

Nice 1 bedroom apartment with sky+ Lakefront, heated pool and 2 hot tubs. The indoor hot tub was nice but could do with a clean. The water was quite dirty and It had a thick line of black mould around it which damaged our swimsuits. I did let reception know so hopefully they will sort it. Housekeeping came in whilst we were out and did a good tidy and washed our cups which was nice of them.
