It was better than expected- value for money and fantastic services.
Pros:

Everything
The room was fantastic and so clean- the staff were over the top amazing!!! So helpful and lovely!!

Cons:

It did look a little dirty when we drove down the side driveway past the kegs! I think that gives the wrong impression for how clean and great the room actually are!

I can’t wait to be back on my journey south 🫶
Pros:

Everything! The staff were all so friendly and helpful. The room was massive and had everything you could think of. Free bottled water and great food and room service. This place reminds me how much better motels sometimes are compared to resorts

Cons:

Absolutely nothing

Pros:

I liked that it was 10minutes from our event.

Cons:

Lthough The place was clean and the room comfortable, it was definitely not worth the money. Property is not well maintained. I get that it was a busy weekend on the GC but $277 is what i would pay for a 4.5star property. Just beats me how next weekend the price will be $146. So I wouldn't stay here again unless desperate. Sorry just being honest!

A good stay. No problems at all.
Pros:

Its an older building but they have modernised the rooms which have everything you need. Good to have USB charging on both sides of the bed too. Reception is not manned all day and you have to ring a number. Worked ok after a short wait for someone to turn up.

Cons:

Nothing really. The place is as advertised and I had a good stay. They give you 10% off dining and free drinks too which was appreciated.
