    Location was close to airport

    The room had a musty smell…. But we were only there for one night prior to an nearly flight so it was manageable.

    9AmandaPosted on: 2-10-2026

    The bed was great, the fact there was a microwave was great. The room size was excellent.

    The only nitpicky thing i have was the shower head was not great

    7AndrewPosted on: 2-8-2026

    Great location friendly staff

    Value for money

    9BaverstockPosted on: 2-2-2026

    I like that it’s a nice environment, good friendly staff. The cleaners do a very good job as a regular I notice. The accommodation is very good if you request something they do go above and beyond. The wifi connection isn’t great but aside from that it’s fantastic.

    Just slow wifi connection isn’t ideal

    10JuliaPosted on: 2-2-2026

    We loved that the room was spacious and relatively modern. Room was clean and felt light and airy. We got to enjoy one day of the pool which was also great. We loved too that we could walk out the back way and go to the marina. Really short walk to big playground and cafes etc near Patawalonga.

    There wasn’t much at all really! We had a great stay. Parking was a bit squashy in parts, ours was good but could see others struggling a bit. I’d recommend getting some sort of railing at the entrance to the pool as it was a bit hard to get into especially for older people or those with a disability.

    Lovely and clean, roomy and comfortable. Very satisfied for a budget stay.

    Nothing significant
