Iâd stay here again purely because itâs close to the airport. Itâs not walkable due to the highway, but an Uber only takes about 5â10 minutes. We paid roughly $45 AUD for the ânight,â although we only slept for about four hours because of our early connecting flight. The bed was clean and we had no issues getting some rest.
The hotel itself is a bit unusual â it looks like a huge warehouse with rooms and raised walkways. The TV seemed more decorative than functional, as every channel was static or had poor reception.
The place is definitely dated but still clean and tidy. It actually felt more like a boarding house, with lots of mismatched doors everywhere. Our bathroom was very clean, but we didnât have any towels, so we ended up sharing our one beach towel, lol. The room locked securely, so we felt fine leaving our things and sleeping there.
The front desk wasnât overly friendly and came across a bit blunt, but they did help carry our bags up to the room. Thereâs a small shop inside with drinks and snacks, which was super handy â and surprisingly cheap. We grabbed large bottles of water for about $1 AUD.
The surrounding area feels a bit sketchy, but we had no issues when we went out to find food. A lot of nearby places looked closed, so we ended up ordering Uber Eats.
Overall, itâs not a bad option for a quick overnight stop. Some of the rooms I saw through windows looked pretty rough, so I think we got lucky with ours â it even had a little veranda with fake flowers.
