We stayed in a 3 bedroom room with toilet. It was basic as expected but we still found it very comfortable and very good value. The staff were friendly and welcoming. I would have no problem with staying here again.

Went out of our way to go check in and no one was available at 3pm. Multiple people queueing up to check in with no one in the office to help, even contacted the help number on the door and waited around for 20mins but no reply. Room was super hot with no fan and nearly impossible to sleep. Also had no toilet paper in our private bathroom. Only stayed there one of our 3 nights booked.

Value for the money you pay. I was very happy. Might not be for fussy people though. The number given to confirm late arrival was engaged till the afternoon. Had me worried as I was trying advise I’m late and organise receiving key late.

Found a massive cockroach in the room. Initially the overwhelming smell of what I thought was cleaning product made me happy to know the room had been cleaned but it didn't dissipate.

6/10 Good

You get what you pay for and this place is perfectly adequate. There were plenty of minor faults, such as a missing lightbulb, one severely flickering lightbulb, lack of on-site parking for the number of units available. We couldn't figure out how to turn the TV on using the universal remote provided and one of the bunk beds had loose screws that made the ladder pretty wobbly. But given it's the cheapest place in town that's not overly surprising. It is nice and secluded and it's nice to be able to let the kids run on the grass outside.

The mattress was hard so were the pillows, back ache and sore neck for 2 days. Had to ask for extra towels.

4/10 Fair

The unit was lovely and clean. We were only given one face cloth for a two person stay over night. The shower took a long time to reach hot and it would not mix with the cold to be able to shower. It was either scolding hot or freezing cold. The ply of the toilet paper was bad that it was hard to rip off to use it just ripped to small pieces when you touched it. The only place to sit in the unit was on the bed (no chairs). We were told it was a motel unit that we were renting for the night so we expected to have a kettle and cups and saucers with tea bags and milk. When I went to the main Kitchen they informed me that none were suppled. We were very disappointed as we paid $86.00 for one nights stay.
