    Room smells a bit, had to open all windows to clear smell. 2 encounters with cockroaches in the unit during 2 nights stay. Recommended Pest control to staff during checkout, and was told they were slowly going through the units for pest control. Guess our unit hasn’t been done yet.

    Gated security

    The apartment was on the first floor and there was no lift. Reaching upstairs is a nightmare. The two bedroom apartment has only one air conditioning and it is in the TV area. No air conditioning in the bedroom. If you want some cool air, we have to leave the bedroom door open. What in the world they are living. Don’t stay here during summer unless you are prepared to sleep on the sofa. We stayed there for 2 days and the wifi was not working and so no internet. On the day of our departure it was raining and the restaurant was leaking everywhere. The front reception staff at the hotel was not very friendly. In a nutshell the hotel is not up to the standards of other Ramada properties.

    It was clean and tidy.

    The crockery needed a clean, we had to clean everything before use. No tea towel, washing up liquid or scrubbing brush in the kitchen so had to ask at reception. Staff were helpful in providing these items to us but were in no way apologetic that it wasn't there to start with. Balcony needed a good clean, found beer bottle caps under the furniture..It was fine considering the price but probably wouldn't stay again

    Good pool and well maintained grounds

    Decor a bit tired and dated. The breakfast was poor with very little on offer, no fruit, 1 dried up egg and they had even run out of tea bags. Breakfast staff didn’t see that bothered.

    Good location, spacious accommodation.

    Genuinely disappointed. The rooms were date. Air con only available in the living area (not bedrooms). Beds were super uncomfortable. Room was dirty; hair was all over the shower/shower caddy. Dryer in our room was broken. Dishwasher wouldn't run a full cycle. Definitely not 4 star. There are far better places to stay in the bay at this price point.

    The discounted breakfast was quite good. The area was also quiet. Staff are lovely & super helpful. Cannot fault them. Unfortunately, the facilities let them down.

    Absolutely perfect location and lovely apartment

    Just be aware that this apartment is on the third floor with stair access only. If you aren’t great with stairs or have young children a lower floor may be better suited. The mattress may need replacing soon as it did have a sag to it on the right hand side. (This didn’t bother me personally as I sleep on the left.)

    The 2 bdrm apartment was absolutely lovely, spacious and it would be hard to sway me from returning as my go-to from now on. I would definitely recommend for a holiday stay as the layout would be perfect for a family. It is also quiet with a desk and table for someone like myself travelling for business. The unit was beautifully and tastefully decorated, a credit to the owners.

    The unit was old with a school camp feel but the worst thing was the stench. It stunk of a curry, Indian food smell and no amount of room spray would get rid of the smell.

    The pool was ok and the BBQ area was ok

    Was a wonderful well appointed apartment, with all amenities. The balcony was lovely to sit out in overlooking the pool. The restaurant was through a walk way to the sister hotel, was good and the dinner from the restaurant was very good and reasonably priced.

    The stovetop in the apartment didn't work at all so all the food we bought to cook was wasted then we had to go out for dinner and breakfast also the dryer was on the way out and made the worst noise and then didn't even work.. all the other units I have stayed in there have been awesome, this one was just ok

    Always love staying here as it's quiet private and comfortable with everything you need there so you don't have to leave..

    Expell air above the oven didn't work, master bedroom main light didn't work, extractor fan in laundry didn't work meaning damp air from the dryer vented into the kitchen. Air conditioner was noisey,barking dogs from neighbours woke us. Carpet nails at edges of bathroom tiles were sharp on bare feet. Difficult to get out of the shower without slipping...very hard for those with mobility issues. Hand rails would be good to assist.

    Location was excellent. Swimming pool superb.

    The unit is tired, it needs a good scrub, it smells of musty damp. The curtains are torn and not fully functioning You only get 1 key, so if you want to do different activities, you need to plan well. Cause you need the key to get in and out.

    It was close to the boat club. It was the ground floor.

    Pool was too cold. We also requested a ground floor which would have been much more comfortable and safer with young kids than a balcony and didn't recieve it. I didn't even get a return call when we asked if there were any opportunities to shift. We also pricked our feet on carpet nails sticking up, one of the remote gate keys didn't work and a few other small annoyances.

    Very tidy and family friendly. Apartments were generous in size.

I called about the broken tv and coffee machine all they could say was oh sorry about that. also if you have 4 people staying you should get 4 towels, not 2.
