We like coming to stay here for the facilities, and especially the heated pool, and comfy beds - but this time didn’t hit. The heating was out in the whole building (I was given a portable heater for my room after phoning reception - but this was not mentioned at all during check in). The pool looked amazing after its renovation, but unfortunately was not heated. Again, this was not mentioned at time of booking or check in, and I believe it has been an ongoing issue for weeks now. The rooms are always clean and tidy and the beds are comfy, although the curtains offer little block out, so the street lights are always shining in, and the balcony sliding doors offer poor outside noise control and ours also rattled all night. Our curtain also had a food smear on it? The inside piano music could still be heard at 3am, and I could also hear my neighbours water pipes and phone calls from my room. I hate writing this review, but cannot bite my tongue when I’ve paid $248 for the ‘experience’. We will not be back unless these problems are addressed.

Wifi terrible. Seems to be an ongoing issue. Unable to use television as a result. Staff seemed uninterested & unwilling to assist. Menu very limited. No steak… minimal beef options. Very old appliances, freezer needed to be defrosted. Unable to adjust air conditioning… dodging itinerants/intoxicated persons whilst trying to enter & exit the property. Unfortunately I had to extend my stay & staff failed to update my key. This was an overly complicated process. Overall, I don’t recommend for the price. More of a cheap motel vibe.

Disappointed

The room was clean. Bed was comfortable. Disappointed in the restaurant. We ordered room service at 8pm. Was told couldn’t do room service as they were too busy. Went past restaurant about 10 minutes later and they were packing up and very loudly talking about going to someone’s party. Not one person in the restaurant. Very disappointed
