Curtains were held up by pegs and still didn’t block the light out which shone in the windows all night. Pool was out of action and that was one of the reasons we chose the place knowing we were visiting due to an athletics carnival.

The room that was allocated to me the bed is sagged in the middle. Bathroom floor tiles look like they haven’t been cleaned in a long time. Exterior paint work is peeling off especially fascia eaves. Doorways are knocked around. Why I was allocated this particular room as it was for disabled persons when there was other rooms available.

Rooms need larger curtains to block out lights from club car park. Check in at the kiosk may be a problem for people that do not like to use technology. Pleasant stay with convenient walk to club and nearby shops.

No one at the reception when we arrived. However. we were able to check in through a check in kiosk which is not the same as a person. There were hairs on the bathroom floor that was cleaned up after complaining to the manager when he finally arrived. One mug short and the bed light cover was off. The air conditioner when on during the night was blowing on top of the guest head making it uncomfortable
