Light fittings hanging from exposed wires on balcony, fan hanging from roof. What looks like blood on wall under bench as well as otherwise grotty walls. Definitely not worth the $124 we paid for the room.

We had to wait for a while to be attended to at the office, but that was only because there was only one person working and she had to be cleaning rooms and attending the office as well. She did a great job but it seems like she had way too much work to do for one person. The rooms were really clean and nice and the property is right next door to a Bowling Club so very good position.

Rooms very outdated. Holes and tears in the bedding. Tiny TV and unable to receive channels. Sliding door rusted and hard to open. Facilities run down and outdated. Uncomfortable small bed. Only towels provided. No cold water in fridge. Remote to aircon needed new batteries. Took a long time to work. Staff nice enough but need to improve things as it was the worst place I’ve ever stayed in. Is there a rating lower than 1star??
