Golf Place Inn

2/10 Terrible

"I recently stayed here with my daughter from 15–17 May 2026 in Room 219 (Family Queen with 2 Single Beds), booked through Expedia at a total cost of $462.54. The property advertised the rooms as being recently refurbished. While the room appeared clean and tidy on arrival, there were numerous maintenance and safety issues that significantly impacted our stay. The issues included: • Bathroom sink light not working • Leaking S-bend under the sink causing water to spill onto the floor whenever the sink was used • Extremely poor shower pressure, with water running directly onto the bath taps instead of spraying properly from the showerhead • Bathroom floor becoming dangerously slippery after showering — I nearly fell stepping out of the bath even while using the floor mat provided • Toilet flush button continually sticking, causing the toilet water to keep running • Bathroom door difficult to close, with the door stop hanging off • Towel rack pulling away from the wall • Curtains could not be opened during the day because sheer curtains were missing, meaning people from the golf course could see directly into the room • Television would not work • Kettle contained mould or residue and could not be used Unfortunately, the accommodation did not provide the quality, comfort, or facilities that were advertised or reasonably expected for the price charged. After numerous emails to the golf course all they are prepared to do is offer a 15% discount on our next stay, Not recommended"
