Excellent room, great bay view with balcony. Staff were excellent and most helpful. There were negatives however for whilst I had selected ‘parking’ as a requirement (I am partially disabled) there is no on-site parking. Their parking is in a shopping centre for $30 a day or $50 valet. Internet was so slow, ‘Speedtest’ didn’t even work. Overall, good, but could be better and ‘offsite’ parking should be highlighted.

The room was very dusty, the whole bathroom was quite dirty, hair on the shower glass, floor was mouldy. The quilt was dirty as well. The fan in the bathroom wasn’t working properly and place got very steamy quickly. Just a very unhygienic room.

There was construction works happening during our stay. It was supposed to be a relaxing getaway. Instead it was not the case, there was constant drilling and even dust coming through the site in the lobby. The entrant to the leisure centre was under construction and poorly laid out. I feel it was wrong to get this quality of stay considering the amount we paid.

The room we stayed in had a collapsed mattress on one side,it was to late to advise the staff on our first night. When we did advise the staff the next day they changed us to a different room. Also, we rang reception and room service, waited for 15 mins on the phone. In the end we just went down to reception, only to be told they were very busy,thats why they didnt answer the phone

This a great location. Easy walk to the water and the shops. Room was comfortable, with a good bed and shower. Unfortunately, the hotel has renovations happening. We were informed of this after booking. This meant that we were woken in the mornings with a jack hammer, that went on throughout the day, was not relaxing and saw us leaving our room early each day. We had a lovely balcony view, but unfortunately did not enjoy this during the day, due to the jack hammer. Noah in reception was very helpful.
