The room was relatively neat and tidy. However it did not have a microwave despite saying it would on the website, I couldn’t access any apps on the TV, and the shower head fell off the wall when I tried lifting it. I called reception (who again didn’t answer) and left a message to this effect, however did not get a call back. I repeatedly called the restaurant to order room service but no one answered and had to ask reception to call them. Luckily I was checking out the following day as I would definitely want another room with amenities that I paid for.

The property doesn’t hide the fact that it is under renovation but given the impact of the renovations, it really is over priced. The bathroom was mouldy and badly cleaned. This isn’t acceptable at the price they charged. My night’s sleep was badly disturbed by the air conditioner making a huge amount of noise at 3am which really alarmed me. I had to turn it off and of course it took ages to get back to sleep. Very disappointing experience and not recommended.

What once was a classic motel is undergoing renovations. Our double bed was to 3/4 singles pushed together. Fell thru the crack and my feet off the end of bed. Horrible stains on carpet. Worst thing was the air con from adjacent room shuddered on every ten minutes. It was hell. Maybe in a year it will be transformed. Seems to be a halfway house now.

As per normal - the photos look way better than the actual room and facilities. The other guests near us were extremely disrespectful and noisy. You can hear everything up the hall way and slamming doors. There is no microwave or toaster. No plates or bowls. Only 2 cups and 2 glasses. The outside area was not clean. I would not recommend this stay for children. We asked for a room swap due to noise and the staff were not helpful at all, offering no solution. The location was good. Close to the zoo and park, but I’d never stay here again.

Poor standard of accommodation
The room was in a poor state of decor. You could hear all the noises from other rooms. Bed was 2 beds pushed together and as the floor was not carpet the beds moved across the floors. There was zero support in the bed.
