"Avoid at all costs. Poor product, poor service and total rip off :("

2.0

This was the biggest disappointment of our Australian trip. Having spent a significant amount more to secure an "underground room experience" we were very disappointed to walk into our room (at ground level) which looked like a 1970's kitsch plastering and painting attempt to simulate an underground room. Breakfast was a similar debarkle with only one staff member on duty to cater for a known group of around 25 guests who had been given breakfast vouchers the night before.

The rooms were older but clean and comfortable. Free washing machine which was great. The facilities at the hotel were great. You can play pokies in a cave.
