An aging facility but very clean and comfortable, I loved the elevator. A short-notice booking priced right. More than happy with the one-night stay.

Susan, 1-night trip

Norman, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Was ok but not perfect… needs bit of more cleanliness and renovation
Sital, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Property is dilapidated and needs serious maintenance and revamping. Seemed as though there were long term residents occupying rooms and communal spaces. Rooms were much too expensive for the state they were in.
Lisa, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Liked that there was a spa but the Jets weren't working. Enjoyed the Thermal, rooms are pretty standard but was livable over all a great place
Hone, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Place was ex emergency hosing, and in terrible condition, needs painting, new bathroom, shower ovwr spa bath was useless, and spa bath very stained. However, bed was clean and comfortable
David, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Staff, location, access to shops were great. But the property is a bit tired. 3.5 stars is probably a fair rating. But for the price, I thought it was very good.
Timothy, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good location. The place is falling apart. Crockery and cutlery all different. The walls and ceilings are stained and look ready to fall down. It seems that it's a one man show and the manager can't be everywhere
Stephen, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Room setting is outdated but has all the basic necessities. Beds are comfortable and clean. Close enough parking to the room. The fish n chip place across the road, extremely yummy so that was a bonus.
Katherine, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

AWFUL HOTEL

Issue a 100% refund. We did not stay at hotel. We checked out after 15 minutes as the rooms were not fit for habitation. We informed the staff and returned our keys: Trash was lying around Bathroom fixtures were rusted Rooms dirty Photos available if required
John, 7-night trip

6/10 Good

Easy check in, hassle free, but the lack of maintenance was very obvious.
