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.

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.
