Amazing foyer. Room was lovey. Staff were friendly. Restaurant food was quite nice but service was a bit hit and miss the night we were there. The robot delivering meals was a bit of fun but not terribly effective. Inside the room was very nice but outside needed a bit of attention. Big sliding glass doors needed a good clean and there was rubbish under the outside table and chairs. Location was nice and quiet. Overall a pleasant enough stay.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The external facilities could be highly upgraded and maintained better. This includes garden and grass maintenance, cleaning of walls, carparks and common areas. Rooms could have more modern accessories including tea and coffee facilities that reflect the room cost per night. More staff on has there appeared to be minimal staff. Would note the staff that were on, were fantastic. The have a table ordering system (Me&U), wasn't functional. Area outside Riverview rooms was dirty, no seperation from adjacent rooms and overlooking a carpark that radiated heat. Overall for the price per night, some serious TLC nees to be applied to get this hotel to what it could potentially be. Also, ordered a kids parmi and adults parmi, absolutely identical. One was $15 and the other $28, underwhelming. Positives - good bed and bathroom in room was nice. Staff that were on did a great job.
