Messed a lot of things up on a simple booking

Very average reception service. Messages were not received or acted on. Like requesting connecting rooms. Requesting late checkout. Messed up booking, told at arrival only one room booked, when there was clearly two. I would say inexperienced front desk staff.

This was clean but very old. My door to outside kept opening in the night because it wouldn’t latch. The bathroom is very old and needs a revamp. Cobwebs and dirty windows. For $360 a night it’s not worth it.

Very convenient location, especially for less-mobile family members. Hotel had everything you need and their staff were very quick to help your every requirement if you wanted to book activities. Very safe location (you can park your car outside for free between 6pm-9am and it is very safe). Great bar with lots of activity and excellent buffet for breakfast and menu for dinner. Would definitely stay again.

Party City

Great location to beach and restaurant/bar district and nightlife. Not enough parking space to accommodate all guests but suggested nearby parking structure was $5AUS per day less and convenient but no in and outs. Breakfast was very good but barista coffee is extra.
