Bed we’re Comfortable and room had good heating. Room needs so work done to it. Especially bathroom no heater or fan. Had hole in wall by bath must of been flooded at some stage. Bath needed cleaning before kids could use. Hair and dead ants in there. Also tray for utensils has heaps of crumbs in. I think some room like in photos have be done up but not this room. Also having pool right outside room not ideal for my child like to play in water also is kids were in supervised could get chair and climb right in.

"This was a good batch to stay in for 3-4 people, being comfort and cozy. Utilities and expectations were communicated clearly which was nice. The parking space is good and the batch is close to the bay jetties.While the batch itself was good, the cleanliness of it wasn’t the best. Old leaky trash ..."
