Biggest feedback and reason we won’t return is the fold out lounge is very uncomfortable only book if you have very small children or 1 child sleeping on it. Room is big enough to add a couple of single beds downstairs would sacrifice floor space for this. Also appeared they used the second pillow on the main bed to make the fold out so bring extra ones. Can walk to restaurants which was good upstairs bed comfy (except the pillow missing). Reception staff are lovely check in and out was quick.

Friendly staff as usual. I wouldn’t stay in room 120 as it faces 2 roads therefore noisy truck and car sounds especially 6.30am in the morning. The shower in this room has no hub on the floor therefore water splashes far and wide on the floor. The room it self is huge with a massive balcony with out door furniture.

Room was neat and tidy - bathroom was great. Breakfast selection ie alternative milks you had to ask for - ran out of certain foods and didn’t have any supply in next day either. Jams would have been nicer in their own individual packets - not hygienic enough.

The room was clean but showing its age. The bathroom was very small & quite a tight area to negotiate - especially getting into & out of the shower. The bed was uncomfortably firm. Unfortunately, the blinds didn’t block out the light well & there was a lot of noise coming from outside as well as from the store room next to the room.

Room was approx $400 per night. When we arrived we were told to pay another $15 per day for parking or park on the street. I questioned why paying for parking wasn’t an option when booking the room. Desk clerk advised Wotif is an “American third party and we don’t know what they offer”. The restaurant includes large screen coverage of horse racing and off track betting and clients who are there to bet and drink. The food was “pub fare” and over cooked. Minimal service offered. Bar staff sneezed on glasses and said she has hayfever. Room was comfortable although air conditioner was noisy. I thought it was a car alarm outside. A card was left in the room from the previous guest thanking them and gifting a bottle of wine. Housekeeping was hit and miss. The hotel is not located close to any restaurants, shops etc so reliant on TV for entertainment. Free to air channels the only option with a picture that repeatedly pixelated. Wifi was slow at best and repeatedly dropped out. At $400 per night we left feeling we had been ripped off. I can only suggest booking elsewhere. This place was awful.
