4/10 Fair

Cannot fault the staff nor the cleanliness. However at every turn there is an extra charge on top of the room fee...parking, tea, fresh towels, a lemon slice. And buffet breakfast was not worth $42 per person. Absolute wrought by management and the Accor group.

A very enjoyable stay. The hotel is well located with great access to beaches, cafes and restaurants, and a short walk or free bus trip to Wollongong CBD. The staff are friendly, helpful and efficient. Fabulous outlook from my ocean facing room with balcony. The room was clean. spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was also good. The only negative is the onsite parking charges! Plenty of street parking available close by.
