The room was completely run down, carpet stained all furniture beaten up, bed had huge dips in it. The entire room was a disgrace. This is not a nice hotel and should be rated 2 star at best. I cannot believe Mantra leave it in their portfolio. The staff were wonderful and helpful but the hotel is in appalling condition.

The room was….. dirty. A very tired old room. Old food in the drain in the sink, stains all over the carpet. The sheets were nice and clean, parking was good, friendly helpful staff. But for the price of the room for one night didn’t match the standard of the room.
