Very comfortable and very clean spacious unit. There were 3 of us in a 3 person unit but only towels, cutlery, dishes etc for 2 people. No milk and very few tea bags, coffee etc. Comfortable bed. Shower over the spa bath that was a bit ‘tricky’ entering and exiting. We were there for 3 nights. Staff helpful.

Not up to scratch!

I've stayed here a few times and had been okay so far, but the bathroom this time wasn't great. The two heat lamps didn't go and when you looked at the state of the unit it was pretty bad. Also I turned on a wall switch which must've been for the spa bath, which suddenly started going, but you couldn't turn it off at the bath as the switch there looked broken. The heat pump looked like a panel had been broken and was noisy as well. A bit tired overall, especially for a motel that uses the word luxury, when it is far from it.

Would not reccommend

Stayed for one night and would never go back. Mold all over the blinds in every room, mold all on the floor in the bathroom, no ventillation in the so there was heaps of condinsation leaking everywhere and out of the lights was brown droplets, cracks in the walls and roof, heat pump barely works, pillows were old and clumpy and the whole place smelt terrible. Lounge was old and cracked and was facing the toilet which was not pleasant. Very unhappy. Only plus side was staff in reception was nice when i went to ask for more toilet paper because they only gave us 1 roll for 4 people.
