Rooms pleasant even if halls need an upgrade- patrons the least pleasant thing about the stay
Pros:

Excellent room layout and storage, lagoon pool and spa with cabanas; attached to Wests club with choice of restaurants, bars and good pub grub

Cons:

Hallways lobbies a bit outdated and lift was very small; some dodgy clientele that blasted past us because they were so desperate to play pokies; parents covered in tatts with kids sporting mullets and rat’s tails

Pros:

The easy parking , the friendly & attentive staff .
We had a disability room & it was sooooo good for my husbands needs .
We had an incident at dinner & we were so well cared for by the staff & escorted back to our room .
On departure the next morning the desk enquired if everything was ok now .
I thought that was lovely .
They cared about us .
We weren't just people staying in a room overnight.
Easy access to the buffet breakfast as well.
We very much enjoyed our time there .

Very overated. Very much a club hotel.
Cons:

Our bed was old. I felt like it had been there for 15 years!!!! Shower curtain was yellowing with mould on it. $300 a night surely a shower curtain can be crisp and clean.
