20 minute wait in queue breakfast, queue ridiculous, not enough staff. Those taking orders also making drinks & taking food out. 50 minutes after entered the restaurant, we finally got out food. Our booking had a free breakfast, doesn’t say $30, least expect a coffee & juice with food (breakfast choice was up to $27!) One girl asked for water, got dirty look up and down. Woman behind till, uttered xxxx under her breath. Not enough staff Receptionist Sunday morning as cold as ice. Shower - disgusting! No hot water couldn’t bathe. Never experienced such bad service. Other customers food orders wrong. All sitting at dirty tables. Ants all over the coffee area at breakfast. Staff look stressed & deflated

Nice location at the Marina, restaurants nearby, some with live music, also a nice restaurant in the hotel although we didn’t use that. There is a pool bar that opens at 4 pm which was convenient. Pool was lovely and also very close to a lovely beach.

Nice location.

Nice hotel, in quiet location. Somewhat spoiled by the restaurant being shut for dinner on the Monday evening, forcing us to find somewhere else to eat- do check which nights it is open!

While the room was clean and tidy we found it quite dated. Mould in the shower, light switches were a bit dodgy and balcony was not very clean. Limited selection of mains on the dinner menu. We paid an additional $50 for breakfast, but were told we were limited to only $30 any thing over that we had to pay additional. Staff were very polite and helpful. I probably wouldn’t stay here again.

If the Mantra are not happy letting Wotif market their rooms cheaper than they charge - dont do it! Simple, there are plenty of other motels that welcome Wotif customers and demonstrate that the customer is important regardless on what the customer has used as a marketing research tool and payment mechanism.
