We stayed here as we had an early morning flight the following day and the property provided free car parking for up to a week as well as a free shuttle to and from the airport. The people were friendly that we dealt with. The room looked like it had been recently renovated and was clean, tidy and spacious. I would stay here again for this same scenario.

It was good for sleeping the night but the room stank like a wet dog. I think animals had been there at some point because we had to spray that room thoroughly, just to get to sleep.

Great value for money - 7 of us fitted well in the 2 bedroom. Was clean. But it old and a little decrepit. Holes in net curtains. Lots of bumps and brusies around the place. Kitchen stuff is missing and has been cleaned by previous guests not cleaners and it shows. We aimed to cook but gave up. Kitchen is tiny. Laundry is only $2 for a wash and $2 for dryer. Very friendly staff which is why we have given it 3 star instead of 2. Carparking is VERY tight. Big utes etcs might struggle. Probably wouldnt stay again if we could afford something else.

Simple improvements would make the stay better. Bathroom is very tight at the sink. Just looking tired. No coffee. Matches the cost of the room. Airport transfers excellent.
