There's nothing to like about this place. Dirty, smelly and unsanitary. Im being honest when I say a cruise ship room is much bigger. I teally dont know what pictures they used as certainly not the same place. We only lasted 30m and checked out. Junkies paradise at its best. Wish i had read the reviews prior to booking. NEVER AGAIN...

Unfortunately the room faced the road so there was traffic noise all night. There were several cockroaches in the room. Don’t think the room was cleaned well as there was dirty socks just underneath the bed.

Up front, the General Manager was extremely pleasant and helpful. However, during the stay, the bed sagged in the middle, and the bed underlining was torn and drooping. The GM did say they were planning to replace some of the beds. The room showed age with seam cracks and outdated decor. The wash basin wasn't in the bathroom but sandwiched in the corner of the bedroom which was odd. The modular design of the room and bathroom looked cheap. I do understand that it is budget accommodation, but the room was poky and not as clean as it should have been. Lots of dust behind the TV, plus a spider crawling over my luggage. On the evening of my stay, there was some yelling by somebody out in the car park, which continued unabated for about an hour from around 8 pm. Overall, it would be rated by me a 5 out of 10, and most of that would be for the GM's pleasant attitude.

We arrived at 8pm after a long day of travelling. We checked in, got our room keys (2 rooms) and both rooms had not been cleaned since the last guests. The bins were full, beds clearly slept in and wet towels on the floor. The night receptionist was apologetic and had to clean both rooms while we waited. We just wanted to go to bed and found this an unnecessary inconvenience. I'll be requesting a portion of the bill refunded.

You can hear everything, from your neighbour flushing the toilet or brushing their teeth. But the big kicker was my 3 year old daughter found ecstasy pills in our room just laying on the floor and another pill in the breakfast area. Luckily she gave it to me to flush it immediately. I didn’t expect a 5 star stay, but at least a safe one. We also paid for a bed for my daughter which wasn’t made up, no bedding, pillows nothing. Won’t stay here again and I’m glad it was only for one night.

The ‘regular rubbish’ area was over flowing with bags of rubbish. The staff wasn’t very talkative and I was quite turned off by this. An elder gentleman who checked in before me card wouldn’t work on the door to his room, he came back to reception and the lady rolled her. Eyes, it’s not hard to smile, smiles are free so is kindness.
