Although families with children appeared to be enjoying the pool and recreation areas, this 3-star hotel isn't suitable for couples, the elderly, people with disabilities or small children. The layout... read more (bedroom and bathroom up a narrow circular staircase) is not easily accessible and could pose a danger to toddlers. The downstairs area is roomy. There is secure parking right next to each individual townhouse. Unfortunately, our entire townhouse smelled strongly of moisture and mould. I suspect the management knew this as, when we arrived, all the windows were open and two fans were on. The smell was particularly bad upstairs in the bedroom and the mouldy scent also came out of the bedroom A/C upstairs which made it highly unpleasant to even be in that room. There is no A/C downstairs but we had a nice cross breeze - we slept with doors and windows open (screens locked) due to the smell. Although our interactions with the staff were pleasant enough, it certainly felt as if the level of care wasn't there, which is also reflected in the room. The pots and pans were so scratched that we opted not to cook and the little niceties, like a hand towel in the bathroom, were not included. You are also given a list of instructions on arrival, including how to dispose of your own rubbish. Not a good experience for us but perhaps this motel is better for a family holiday.

Highly recommended.
