At over $300 a night for two people it was way over priced! We recently paid the same amount to stay in the heart of Rome! I suspect prices were bumped up because of WOW and the rugby.

I love the spa pool and separate upstairs bedroom. The outlook is lovely as well. Just needs a bit of paint and update the kitchen

Convenient location, close to motorway. Suitable for big families and companies. Rooms are worn off, with uncomfortable beds and cleaning quality definitely needs to be improved. Overall, ok to stay for short term if dont expect much...

This place stunk of someone cooking curry (which the compendium said was not permitted) and it had a serious ant infestation.

Unit was tired needing an upgrade, linen was top notch and toilet spotless the shower had great water pressure but needed de moulding. The bed definitely needs replacing.
Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024

10/10

The room was a good size including a kitchenette, with a modernised bathroom. There was a small electric heater but it provided sufficient heating on a cold night. Very convenient to catch the ferry next morning and to Johnsonville shopping centre. Only minor criticism is that the bedspreads were rather old and marked and could do with being replaced. Would definitely stay here again

The location is convenient, close to the motorway. Too close to the motorway when you have the windows open. Run down, no air conditioning, one fan. Hot plates in Room M don’t work, no stove. Probs won’t stay again.

The main support beams for the second floor in our room were all badly cracked and unsafe. Everything was covered in dust and the room smelt strong of curry.
