We booked a room specifically with a spa bath which we ever very excited to try but found out it had not been properly cleaned! Not to mention the visible cracking in the paint. We obviously did not want to use it. The sliding door to actually get into the room we really struggled with. It needed ALOT of force to open and close, it did not glide easily at all! Now I will say the rest of the room was clean and tidy and the receptionist was absolutely lovely but that's as far as the good goes. We also got given a small bottle of milk at reception and yes I do enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning but a sink to fill the kettle up? No you would have to use the bathroom sink. This room did not meet our expectations at all and is definitely was not with the $207 we paid for plus the extra of $50 for "bond" We will not be booking again.

The room was clean and tidy, but if you don't like washing your dishes in the bathroom basin, this is not for you. Very limited cutlery and meal prep facilities, but it is understandable for the price and description in advertisements.
