Had a lovely overnight stay here. The facility was clean and felt safe. The staff were extremely helpful and they also have a standard continental breakfast if required. Walkable distance from the airport and great for a late arrival flight. Jasmine was a very kind and helpful staff member, Thankyou for your accommodations.

Clean and everything you need for an overnighter
Due to a cancelled Jetstar flight I had to book this last minute, arrived at midnight and checked out by 8am but the room was so clean, compact and just enough for an overnight stay. Cannot complain about anything, my room was on the freeway side but the noise was minimal

It was good for what you need, private bathroom and enough space just to rest for a night. Powerpoints are quite far from the bed though.

Not the worst budget hotel I have stayed in but also not the best. It was certainly good enough for a weary traveller to put their head down and sleep after or before catching a flight. Handy proximity to airport terminals great and an easy 5-minute walk to and from. Pros – the receptionist was efficient and polite, my room was clean, and the bed quite comfortable with crisp bedding. Cons – the space was cramped – partly because the mattress was about 25cm longer than the base – meaning I had to crab walk past it to get to the other side of the room. The property is showing its age and could do with a bit of a freshen up. and the road surrounds leading to the property could be beautified somewhat – it's a bit bleak otherwise.

The furthest of the ‘airport hotels’, prices should reflect the inconvenient distance from the terminals - 15min walk. Wouldn’t be so bad if there was a bar/restaurant but that’s at the Holiday Inn - should have stayed there!

Advertised as a 10 min walk. We are old and got lost. The walk was half an hour and we nearly ended up on the highway in the middle of the night. Taxis not wanting to take you there. Not going there again

Quite a distance from the airport terminal with no shuttle service. Shower was very tiny and up a step into the shower and toilet recess. Not good for the elderly. Room was comfortable, clean, air/con, bed good. No lift makes the stairs the only option.
