Disliked: Cleanliness
Property has potential but it's lack of cleaning and maintenance let's it down. This accommodation seems to be mostly shift workers short term stays with some residential, not for holidays. We tried to modify stay by moving back one day, Pacific Sands said no problem but we had to get Wotif to put it through. Wotif then made a big deal about it and claimed Pacific Sands would not respond so we either lost a nights stay or had to pay a large fee for the change. Upon arrival the reception at Pacific Sands had received nothing from Wotif and happily moved our dates by one day. A big thank you to the reception for doing that. We haven't used Wotif for some time and won't be using them again

I got in late and the doors were locked so I was unable to check in to my room. I ended up having to go to a different hotel even though I had already paid for this one.

This property is very run down and dirty! We had to be moved from the first room due to airconditioner not working and musty/mould smell and the second room had the most putrid carpet and a dirty sock in the wardrobe.

Do not stay here!
Advertised as 4 star. Room is underwhelming. Limited furniture/decorating, carpet stained, light fittings missing, throw pillows stained. Gross! Walls between rooms are paper thin. I was subjected to listening to a domestic dispute from the room next door, including the constant slamming of doors and children screaming for 3 and half hours. No info on after hour contact, complained in the morning and was told the after hour contact number is on the front door to the lobby - quite unsafe for a lone female traveller with a domestic dispute happening in the room next door and spilling out into the shared spaces. Reception didn’t care. I won’t be staying here again. Honestly a nightmare experience

Rooms are tired, big red stain on the carpet, black marks on the wall. Receptionist was lovely when we asked for more towels and toilet paper as the rooms are not serviced every day. It is convenient to have some cutlery, crockery and the kettle, sandwich press, microwave and toaster.

Upon arrival the front desk did not tell me any information just gave me the keys and sent me on my way I had to ask about every little detail which should have been provided welcoming me. I had no aircon for four days, when I called up about this issue they were not very accommodating and said they would not know when it will be fixed. Was fixed on last day however, communication was poor and I was not aware till before I checked out.

Condition of the property/rooms is not as good as photos show. Outside noise from cleaners and other guests - definitely not soundproof rooms. Toilet ran all day/night making water hammer noise. Cutlery and plates needed washing. Parking was good with adjacent vacant lot.
