Excellent service checking in and room was clean. Only minor issues like the desk lamp having no bulb and second shower head broken but overall great room regardless. Very quiet area and plenty of off street parking with the overflow option into Wests.

The staff at the Gateway are welcoming and obliging. While the rooms are a bit on the shabby side for an overnight or couple of nights it’s fine. Hospitality

Our recent stay at Gateway Inn over the weekend was a pleasant experience. The room was generously spacious, as was the bathroom. The bed was comfortable, and the atmosphere was quiet—perfect for relaxation. There was plenty of parking available, which added to the convenience. The provision of ample tea, coffee, and biscuits was a thoughtful touch, and having restaurants on-site was a big plus. Overall, it was a very good stay and exceptional value for money. While the room felt a bit outdated and the WiFi reception could use improvement, these were minor inconveniences in an otherwise satisfying experience.

Liked the spa bath and the double shower. The air conditioning sucked, room was like a freezer. The tap configuration on the spa bath is wrong.
