2/10 Poor

Cleaning should be a priority and actually supplying a room that is advertised. Pillow was lovely though.
Renee, 1-night family trip
Verified Wotif guest review

6/10 Good

Overall disappointing. The property felt tired and worn. It took an hour to get the air con working which ended up needing to be reset via the remote. Small cockroaches appeared when I sat on the lounge. I was informed no parking was available yet the carpark was less than half full all night.
Nicole, 3-night family trip
Verified Wotif guest review

6/10 Good

These apartments were clean and comfortable but were completely uninspiring (black furniture, no artwork) and nothing to make them even a little bit sustainable - no recycling bins, a massive chux cloth per stay which gets thrown out, single use plastic body care bottles etc. Also, I was put on hold for 30 mins several times when I tried to call the off-site receptionist and couldn't get through - gave up.

8/10 Very good

The property is well situated in Newcastle and convenient to a number of dining options. Only trouble was with the airconditioning - one room it wouldn't turn on and the other it wouldn't turn off.
