Liked staff attitude and service. Did not like Room 27 which faced out to hotel's skip bins (rubbish etc). Glass bottle noise at night after c ;losing hotel bar and restaurants etc. Noise very early one morning from skip' emptied of bottles then at day-break around 6am noise from seagulls ripping into the plastic bags of waste in rubbish skip. Also a few minor things not working in Room 27 ...bedside lamp, shuttle blind in bathroom stuck on 'closed'. Have stayed here before and acknowledge that some of these issues are due to age of the property.

The aircon did not work, the rooms were not well cleaned with dirt and leaves on the carpet. The carpet was full of stains and the rooms were dusty. The pool was being refurbished, which was not clearly communicated prior to our arrival. Overall a disappointing experience and one that we won’t be repeating.

Our room was dirty with dust on arrival. Our little boy also found a used mask under the bed when looking for a toy that went under it. It also wasn't serviced properly every day, i.e no toilet paper or new towels one day then no sugar or coffees the next. The shower was also hard to use as didn't have a proper shower mixer on it. The pool was also not keeped clean and was getting greener every day

CONVENIENT LOCATION

This hotel is a convenient stopover for me on my way north as it has easy access to and from State Highway 1.It has a good range of dining options virtually on the same premise. Interior is looking a bit dated and good do with a refresh but otherwise very comfortable.

Room was barely cleaned before we arrived. There was a stack of dirty dishes sitting outside that sat there for two more days after we were accused of leaving them there. Ants in the kitchen which were so bad we had to buy our own poison to keep them away from our food. Bathroom light was broken and door didn't close. Extensive mould in the bathroom. Balcony door can be pushed open even when locked. Stove element was broken. Dish liquid was basically water. Stains on bedding and carpets. Curtains fell off the rail immediately. Fridge frozen section completely frosted over and leaked over everything in the fridge. Found multiple cockroaches in the bedroom during our stay. Tap water for shower and sink is hot enough to burn skin, plus shower handle is way too easy to bump which is a safety hazard.
