Far from a 4-star hotel. Everything is old and in very poor condition. The carpet smells like sweaty feet, the microwave is yellowed and doesn’t even work, and the fridge is damaged. They even have on-site parking and still dare to charge us per night.

Beds were comfy. Good room amenities, parking & location. But the room smelled extremely bad. We had to sit outside. Asked for a room change but they were fully booked. I had to request an air-freshener & they have me a spray bottle which said it was floor cleaner. Unimpressed & won't be back.

The 2 bedroom we had for the night was comfortable and well maintained. Although we could see marks and scratches on the furniture, the unit was clean and the carpet seemed new. Best of all, it is a pet friendly hotel which is rare in Australia, sadly. Our baby Shiba loved her stay. Thank you for being so accommodating to families with pets. We will be back.
