Staff were very helpful and rooms were clean, with great facilities available. Handy location.
Stayed here for one night and it was ok.
Unfortunately I think I looked at the newest refurbished rooms pictures (but turns out that’s not what I booked!) when we arrived it was quite different to what we imagined.
Staff were lovely offered for us to upgrade our room for the extra $$. We stayed in our original room in the end and it was fine. Good quiet location and big property.

The room was fantastic! So much room. The location was excellent too - close to everything. The check in / check out was easy and the staff were super friendly. Getting some free milk was a bonus.
