unfortunately the Wi-Fi was a bit poor in this room tucked in away from the Wi-Fi transmitter, but hey the room was clean neat and tidy, a bit tiny - next time if we stay in Cleveland we might will book a balcony room which overlooked the pool maybe a few extra dollars - main issue was no internet, staff were friendly and ok price almost acceptable

Average old style hotel/motel. The room and buildings were clean, but there was no provision for help to get my heavy case up two flights of concrete stairs. The price was cheaper than other places, but didn’t really reflect what you got for your money.

RSL is across the road, and the meaks were great. Found a cafe in the morning less than 5 min walk. Place was clean, and the aircon was positioned well for the hot weather we experienced. We liked to walk and the walk ways took us to the sea side in about 2km. We didn't have time to use the good sized swimming pool, but it was inviting. The place is older than some, but is clean and not run down. It is a comfy stay for a good price and it is convenient to shopping centres and eateries.

The service and cleanliness was fine, but rundown old fashioned rooms with scary entrance and hall ways, felt like I was going to be attacked walking to room. Whilst checking in had a weird man standing at a door about 3 rooms up just spying. No extra locks once inside , I know door locked itself but the extra lock would have been nice. Bathroom was old and dated as well as bedding.
