2/5 Poor

Very old,hard towels. No hand towel only 2 bath towels. Curtains falling off. Just generally not up to scratch.
Stayed 1 night in Mar 2021

3/5 Okay

I didn’t like the reduced reception hours and the fact they expected to give out credit card information at the reception of the hotel over the phone. I had to specifically request my bond money be returned five days after I stayed at this hotel. Staff were polite the rooms were less clean then last visit. I will not be booking a room in this hotel again.

Had pubic hair in the bath tub, towels are so old and tired, bed hard and springy and blanket threadbare, was on bottom floor nd had people walking outside through the back all hours on the night, smell of cigarette smoke in foyer, our room was not serviced in the 5 days we were there location is great is the only positive. Moved to another motel for the next 12 days.

1/5 Terrible

Travelled with family
Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Absolutely disgusted in this place. Would never recommend to anyone ever! We got there and we weren’t happy as it was not what was shown on the website. we had booked 2 nights and the lady was so rude to us and wouldn’t let us speak to manager about the issues and get a refund. A quick sum up would be that the aircon was leaking all over the carpet, the fan was rattling flat out and couldn’t turn off, the smoke alarm was pulled off the roof and sitting on the bench, the hallways and the room stunk of all different weird smells and the pool was filthy. We were told the manager was not available both times we rang to complain and the lady didn’t care one bit. So I told her we were leaving and all she said was “leave the room keys in the room then”. I have never been so disgusted in a place in my life. They should be shut down! We booked 2 rooms for 2 nights and didn’t even stay half an hour! My father has just had a knee replacement and couldn’t even get up the stairs as we weren’t informed there was no lift! They expect everyone to lug all their luggage up stairs... I will be taking this further as I still haven’t been contacted by the manager for a refund! I’ll be sure to make sure no one I know ever stays here!

Good value Accommodation
We live 100km out od town. Decided to do an overnighter to take care of some business and catch up with the kids. Southside International fits the bill as it is good value for money and close to shopping/ amenities.
