Nice. Get what you pay for.
Pros:

Good comfy bed and plenty of space. Parking was also easy to access.

Cons:

The walls of my room were paper thin, so I could hear people snoring next door (very loud all night). There was also a door that connected to the next room (the snorers) which is was weird (it was locked so that was ok I guess).

I was also placed in a room with a disable-friendly bathroom which was fine, except the floor was slippery, and the provided chair that folds up wouldn’t stay up, so this made th shower have even less space to stand.

Ticked the boxes
Pros:

Very friendly staff member at the check in location, very big room with good shower and kitchen. Had almost all I needed. Easy undercover parking. Milk was provided. A nice set of pots and a pan, cutting board, and mixing bowl provided.

Cons:

No cooking utensils at all; a sharp knife, bread knife, and a spatula would have been great. Info about the check in location being different than the hotel was hard to find or not available until after I made the booking; would have liked to know ahead of time. In my room (507), the fridge was very noisy and clattered through the night. No power point by the desk for keeping a laptop charged while working. Room service replaced towels/flannels/rubbish daily which was nice, but for environmental reasons I'd have liked to opt out of- do not disturb signs would be appreciated.

Pros:

The location worked for us. There was a daily replacement of towels.

Cons:

Introduction on how to operate all the appliances and where to find the utensils. Power points needed to be turned on for the appliances. There was a separate drawer (hidden) for the utensils.

Would be reluctant to stay again, but good value for money, location is prime
Pros:

Very spacious

Cons:

Dishwasher didn’t work.
Rubbish bin hadn’t been emptied.
The waiting around at check out to get my bond back while their staff went and checked my room, as Zeta is an unmanned facility.
No ash trays for smokers in outdoor area
Reception phone person was very rude because I wanted to check out at 8.55am and there was no staff on key drop off site.
