Good value. Good quality cotton sheets. Quiet, except the bathroom fan which makes a very loud noise when the light is on. In a shopping centre car park, so not scenic at all. Weird atmosphere as many guests were gambling addicts. Good value and near the airport.

We got out of the car to a dirty syringe on the ground. The description on expedia doesnt really explain that this is part of a pokies and pub, which is open until 4am. The room was clean, however the walls are thin and the person in the room beside had his tv blaring until after 1:30am. Even with ear plugs in it was too loud to sleep. If you're after an airport stop over, there's other options to look at.

First night ok second night no sleep as hotel had function. They should have told guests that noise would be over the top and could have moved to another property. Sign in door must not apply to noise levels caused by hotel itself. Beware

The room is extreamly small and the bed feels like a water bed with no water. It'll be the first and last time I'll ever stay there.

Bathroom was the best I had all holiday. It was newly renovated and rooms were very well kept. I was concerned about the noise of the bar but didn't notice it all night. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Room service was delivered to the room promptly and was hot and delicious. Only issue was the springs on one side of the bed were a bit shot but I was staying by myself so was able to utilise the other side of the bed.
