3 out of 5
Arrived Sat evening at 6pm - was just given a key and told where to park so service was pretty lacking Room was far from what was sold on the website - we had a spa room which said hot tub but was actually a dirty jacuzzi style bath tub Room was dated, dirty and mould above windows in bathroom. Definitely wasn’t blackout curtains either as stated on website. We had a 2yr old staying in the main room and had to block out the light ourselves Also only air con in the sitting room not the bedroom which on a night that was around 28degrees outside was not pleasant at all. No fans provided either, we went to ask at reception for 1 but no one was there at 8pm even though it said reception open to 9pm Good location though and easy parking Really wasn’t worth the $400 a night price tag

Good comfortable sleepover

Good comfortable accommodation which is a little walk away from the town centre, approx 20 to 30 minutes. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Accommodation clean but outside area needed more attention.
