The rooms were fresh and clean, with a modern appearance. I really appreciated the extra bathroom counter space. Bev in the office (sorry if I got it wrong) was exceptional in her welcoming and customer service. We loved this hotel and will stay here again. Personal experience downfalls: - internet was glitchy so I ended up hot spotting with my own data so my son could watch a movie. - Difficulty manoeuvring out of my parking space as a large work van parked opposite my room car park. - Ordered a take away pasta dish from onsite Italian restaurant $29, serving size less than a handful. Followed up with request to top up or refund. Refund provided.

Lovely staff, easy check-in. Clean and very comfortable room. Great bathroom. No noise from main road, although very early, noisy, departures by other guests were unwelcome. Would stay again.

1 night only

The room was great. The bathroom is dangerous with a bath/shower that is hard to get in and out of without slipping. The bathroom is also like a sauna due to no coverings on the windows which is a easy fix.

Not guaranteed a car park in front of your room. The pillow was very flat and the shower floor was slippery. A/C was set on a temp that I’d prefer to be cooler.
