You walk into the apartment and the door is literally punched in with a hole to your room. The furniture was all broken and scratched, and you could hear the people in the rooms around you whispering like the walls are made out of cardboard. The door didn’t always even necessarily lock when closed. The room was just like one of those horror games where you get kidnapped.

Our room smelt like cigarettes, had a cigarette burn in the curtain, drains were blocked and not clean, toilet didn’t flush properly, floors not clean, blood on the small shower head, slap dash Reno job, everything was a little bit broken/not working properly. Some guy was yelling outside of my room quite aggressively at someone? I’m assuming on the phone? Bedding was clean and bed was comfortable. $20 parking. Wouldn’t recommend

Cracked bathroom basin, leaking shower, split system noisy and full of dust, no sauna, dirty pool, builders everywhere as being renovated so lots of noise, limited parking due to building materials in parking spaces, no sauna even though it was advertised. Very disappointing stay.

The curtains in my room were broken at the top and the bright neon sign outside the window was shining in the room all night which made it very hard to sleep. We arrived at night time and found the car park very hard to navigate and ended up in the laundry area, all in all just felt a little disjointed.

Check the plumbing when checking in

Well located and easily accessible. Rooms comfortable enough. However no functioning shower which only came to light too late to remedy due to tight check out time.

Spilt coffee stains on the tiles, several random hairs in the bed and shower. Even found toe nails in my daughters bed. No shower door, window above door wouldn't close, which also had no screen on it. No reply from the hotel, despite emailing photos. The desk staff are lovely, no issues with them. But definitely would not recommend.
