Guest review
10.0Nice big rooms loved the spa was absolutely fantastic 👌
For a discounted $170 you expect better than this - avoid this place till they do it up.
2.0Was a pretty good location and the room wasnt dirty, as some of the other reviews have stated. Was quiet - I guess because other people had read the reviews and didnt stay there... were only 4 other cars overnight.
− No spa in room. They have removed them from the bottom floor rooms to make a "patio" that was just a chair on a slab. The booking website said it had one and their sign when lighted at night said they did. No wifi- the new internet went from reception about 20 meters... our room was about 50 meters from reception so no wifi and therefore no tv. Missing fire alarm in main bedroom. No side tables to any of the beds so you had to put drinks/phones on the floor. The wall heater didnt work so we had a fan heater (that wasnt on when we arrived so the place was freezing). Got a 2nd fan heater when i complained (was 2 degrees overnight so 1 small fan heater wouldnt have done 2 bedrooms). Extraction fan in bathroom didnt work and bathroom was in middle of the 2 bedrooms... so we didnt shower as we didnt want more damp air in the place. Toilet had to be turned off at the wall as would constantly leak from the tank otherwise.
Dirty and Mouldy!! Got a refund as wouldn’t stay there!
1.0Nothing, walked into the room it was full of mould, dirty no toilet paper etc.. called owner and asked for a refund.
− Everything! Dirty and Mouldy!! Didn’t stay!
Guest review
1.0− Highly disappointed with this accommodation, room was very cold windows left open and no working heater. The room was very dated holes in the carpet and stains on the mattress. Tried to warm up with a shower and had no hot water left, there was no lights in the bathroom. Definitely not worth the few hundred dollars I paid.
