Urbar Holidays from AU$729

Very disappointing experience – not what I expected from a 4-star hotel I booked a two-night stay here and, unfortunately, it did not live up to the 4-star experience I was expecting. The lift was not working during our stay, and the key card access to the adjacent building was faulty, which was inconvenient. The cleanliness of the room was also very disappointing. The bin still had litter in it, the coffee cup had clearly not been properly cleaned from the previous occupant, the coffee machine was dirty, and we even found an empty beer bottle under the bed. To make matters worse, there was building work taking place next door, with loud noise starting as early as 7:30am. This was particularly frustrating as I had booked this trip to celebrate my son’s birthday, and the experience was far from what I had hoped for. Even the checkout experience was disappointing. I handed over my key card and there was no interaction whatsoever — not even a simple “thank you”, “goodbye” or a question about how our stay had been. Given the issues we experienced during our stay, I would have expected at least some basic level of customer service or interest in our experience. Overall, I am really disappointed. When a hotel is advertised as 4-star, I expect a certain standard of cleanliness, facilities and customer service. Unfortunately, this stay fell well short of those expectations, and I certainly did not feel that I received the 4-star experience I had paid for.

The staff were very friendly. They offered a lot of tips on shopping and dining options a few meters away. Bed and pillows were extra comfortable.

Service and cleanliness were great but it would be better if there’s a microwave.
