Originally booked 1 night through Wotif. Tried to book an extra night through the hotel but the staff was very unhelpful. Then tried to book the extra night through Wotif but the only way to do it was to cancel the original booking and rebook. The hotel would not waiver the cancellation fee even thou I was rebooking on the spot for 2 nights not 1. Booked my extra night in another hotel so they lost out. Also states on Wotif that parking is available. When I arrived I was told no parking available as the car park was full. Only option was to park on the street which there was no parking or across the main road and up a side street. The room was noisy due to the traffic. The buffet breakfast was less than ideal. And the staff on the front desk were rude. Will definitely not be wasting my money to stay there again.

The room was noisy. The bathroom old and not well maintained. When draining the bath the bath water came out floor waste and soaked the carpet. The staff were helpful but not a good experience
