A typical motel style accomodation attached to a suburban hotel. Self check in which could have been problematic if not for the assistance of a helpful office clerk. Clean. Hotel Beer Garden restaurant in the grounds offers good pub type meals. Recommended

No information on how to get your key to access the room as we were new to this hotel. Attempts to calls were unanswered but after 20 mins we got help from a lady on staff that actually wasn’t too sure herself but helped with gaining the Key via the screen pad on the door, which Wasn’t pointed out. Mould in the bathroom needs attention & the PowerPoint in the bathroom needs attention as both these are a health & safety ISSUES.

Impersonal self check-in; no guidance where to leave key on check-out. Noisy guests pulling in at 2am acting talking loudly like their the only one's awake. Still uncomfortable rollerbed & loose shower taps from other stays.

First and last
Checking was very clunky, self service not working and saying room not ready. Tried at bar, then bottle store then back to bar. Finally got room, funky smell in room so not really pleasant. Went for meal at restaurant, ordered with QR code as directed $35 with an expected 44mm wait. 1 hour later followed up as to were my meal was and was told they couldn’t find me that I had gone and had ordered for table 1, I order for 29. Asked for meal to be delivered to my room as I had a meeting online. Meal arrived and was pork, gravy and salad. Would have been lovely if I hadn’t ordered chicken. Salad and mushroom gravy. Was over it by now. Then just to top it off the rubbish skip truck turned up at 1.30am to empty the skip right outside the room. I left at 5am and have cancelled my booking for myself and work mate for next week. I’ll find something else

Decent for the price. Didn’t expect much but the aircon in the room didn’t work properly and all the vents were ripped out. We also had tape over the lights? We also couldn’t order room service properly as our room wasn’t available to select but the friendly staff told us to just leave a note and they’ll bring it up. The staff were very friendly when checking in and ordering the room service however reception wouldn’t answer their phone when we called. Overall was a fine stay for somewhere to sleep which is all we needed.
