We had no hot water and after travelling all day we were really looking forward to a hot shower. Tried to call reception both at night and in the morning but no answer. Friends of ours stayed there too and also had no hot water. Very disappointing

More like a backpackers than a motel. Considering the festive season, it was very loud and woken 2am by other guests and then again at 7:30am by loud guests. Parking was there but tricky when some guests must have multiple cars. The property overall is run down and dirty. We have been staying here on and off over the years and it seems the property never gets cleaned externally. Internally yes the room has been tended to and set but very basic. Not fresh smelling and missing fly wire on one side of the window, which is dangerous with a child on the second floor. We liked the convenience of it being close to everything and the view of the bay but other than that, the property is not appealing at all.

Was told it was a deluxe room for which we paid extra mainly because it was ground floor and as my husband was having a surgical procedure would be unable to climb stairs. The facilities were very limited, only 3 small plates, 2 knives, 2 teaspoons, loads of glasses, but no dinner plates, bowls, large spoons or forks, tea/coffee supplies were scant and not topped up on our second day. At $198 per day we expected better.

Great location, room not like the photo
Whilst room was comfortable, it had an unsafe feeling about it when arriving at night. There was mould in the shower and hot water did not work properly & the towel rack above toilet rusty. The location is great but website photos did not match the room that was given and with a price of $238 for the night, I expect better quality.

Wouldn't recommend at all, staff were nice but the room was in a terrible state, dirty crusty pillows, the sheets haven't been changed in a while, crowded entrance to the room, no bedside tables or power points near the beds, the microwave doesn't work, the phone was disconnected, and I had to put up with a chirping fire alarm sound coming from the starage room near me all night! Sure they would've noticed it needs new batteries since staff uses that room a lot. Not happ, and wouldn't stay there again in the future.
