Good parking available, staff is great, just little to no noise reduction from the rooms so you’ll hear the street noise. Great otherwise, good bang for you buck.

I wasn't informed about late checkout fee amount nor a time at time of check-in. Property charged me $100 late checkout feeforr checking out at 11 instea of 10. Other guests were also surprised. This is almost same as price for single night stay. Certainly unfair business practices. I will dispute that charge.

The location is excellent and the view of the bay was gorgeous. The hotel is an easy walk to numerous cafes and restaurants. There are three large supermarkets nearby. The beach and the jetty are across the road. There is plenty of off-street parking. Staff were very friendly. Our room was large and we used the jet spa bath every day. The bathroom had nice toiletries, although, BYO toothbrush and toothpaste. They provided tea and coffee with a kettle and a bar fridge. The bed was really comfortable with good pillows and crisp linen, including nice towels. Honestly, the only downside was the annoying emails and text messages they kept sending multiple times each day. They want your credit card details, drivers license number and car registration number before check-in and, even when you provide all that, their system keeps generating multiple emails and text messages asking for those same details. Then, they send a text message moments after check-in with information about the hotel, as if we wouldn't have looked into that prior to booking. Then they email to make sure check-in was okay and then another email after checkout to ask for feedback! Enough!! We were sick of hearing from them and it added an unexpected layer of stress that almost negated the whole reason for our visit - to relax!

The customer service was fantastic, and for the price we have no complaints. Blackout blinds made for an easy sleep in, and amenities in the room were everything we could have needed.
