I found the room to be clean with everything needed for a few days stay. The spa bath was great but a challenge to get in and out of. The taps were on the far side of the bath which made it difficult to fill as well. Overall the room was bigger than expected which made for a pleasant stay. The location was close to everything and pretty quiet as well.

Messaged the property to say we would be checking in late. They said I would be sent the details of after hours check in for the lockbox at 4pm on day of arrival via text. No text recieved, no message & the phone number wouldn’t go through. Had to stop to use a payphone in a different town at 9pm to just get the info to get in. Dated rooms, cockroaches in the room and rust on much of the furniture. Low level of cleanliness and overall poor quality.

Very poor reception staff. Knocked the door at 9:45 AM asking to check out. Insane. It was mentioned as 1,183.92 AUD for 3 nights stay during the reservation, but they deducted 1,201.68 AUD (Debit card payment, not CC). Do not recommend anyone going there or I will not go there again.
