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.
