Extended our stay we liked it so much

Very comfortable apartment with plenty of room, separate lounge area was awesome, king bed very comfy, washing machine was magic & used every evening, the clothes dried quickly overnight on the clothes horse. Friendly staff, easy parking outside in car park. Close to cbd for eating, shop etc. Restaurant onsite. Highly recommend.

A good location for easy walking to shops and foreshore. The apartment was spacious (except for the bathroom, which is tiny) with a nice kitchen and sitting area, with a sofa and table with chairs. Upstairs, the bedroom also spacious and the bed very comfortable. Our balcony overlooked a carpark, but we did not have any issues with noise.

I enjoyed my stay here - really clean, super comfy king bed and everything you could need however it is in a noisy spot on a busy corner with a 24 hour petrol station over the road and so that would dissuade me from staying there again, but that is the only reason. If you want a good, central location and can wear earplugs or are a heavy sleeper then highly recommended.

As part of excellent customer service any establishment should be judged on how they deal with disgruntled customers. The Ship Inn staff know that this is an opportunity to demonstrate a high level of service. Well done Ship Inn. Thank you.
