Basic hotel but lacks any character at all. Several problems need addressing.
Pros:

The facilities are basic. The room was clean but spartan. The desk manager was very helpful despite the shortcomings of the property.

Cons:

The room I was allocated, the heating did not work. Manager told me they were having problems with it but it is crazy they would sell a room without checking the heating. Had to check two other rooms before they found one that worked.
TV was terrible. No Foxtel and 80% of the DTV channels didn’t work.
No face washers.

Beautiful quiet spacious space. My baby slept so well!
Pros:

It’s close to everywhere, clean and spacious! I would rebook!

Cons:

Pantry is also closed when reception is closed. Also the mill in the fridge was expired. So definitely double check the expiry date on the milks.
