we loved the pool. Nice, easy, convenient place to stay. Staff were happy and accommodating. It would have been a lot more comfortable if the separate bedroom had aircon ...it was very hot and stuffy with just a standing fan., window opened to the car park (no breeze). Air con was in main lounge with 2 single beds .. stayed mid January .

Although the room was clean, we thought is was extremely average & outdated in the decor for the price of $175 in a "budget" room for one night

It was ok. A bit dated, Bed comfortable but on the soft side. Pool ok but needs an upgrade. I booked as there is a restaurant onsite but on arrival I was told it was closed but would reopen the next day. It didn’t open the next day and hotel is not close to town centre. A bit frustrating. If you smoke get ready to feel like an outcast. Stand next to a fence, with no shelter or seating. The property needs a designated smoking area that is a little more respectful of people.
