Overall the staff were lovely, I booked the Deluxe King with Spa but sadly the spa had some sort of black mould coming out of the jets of it, so we ended up not even getting a good bath out of it. The Air conditioner barely worked and the room was overheating most of the time we were there (we asked the receptionist multiple times about it but it didn’t seem to make a difference), the TV wouldn’t let us StreamCast at all apparently they had someone come in to fix it a couple days prior but it still wasn’t working so we ended up just not using it all. In the end I probably won’t be booking this hotel again I’ll be going somewhere else.

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 While the room felt a bit outdated and the WiFi reception could use improvement, these were minor inconveniences in an otherwise satisfying experience.

Very poorly managed. Cleaning staff just walk into your room without knocking - repeatedly. Very strange. Have revisited multiple times - but because of a "new system" apparently I've hardly ever been there. As a member - pretty degusted that this is the standard or our club. Musty smelling hallways - terrible parking and atrocious access / egress from the carpark areas. They obviously spent too much money buying the Knights to be interested in providing members the service that they actually pay for.

Mediocre
The hotel itself was clean and reasonably appointed. The staff and clientele however, was questionable. It took several hours to get the staff help on an extremely noisy guest and when confronted was told it wasn't their responsibility. Given the choice, would not stay again. Especially during peak period.

Warm friend staff but in need of upgrade.
Warm friendly staff. Aging interior but still comfortable. Lots of stains on cushions and blankets, crusty food stuck on benches, broken shower, missing plates and cutlery. On request the staff quickly arranged maintenance. The final charge was different and slightly higher than what was booked through Hotels.com. No details on why the higher price was provided.

Upon arrival we were greeted and given our cards. Room was spacious, clean and tidy, and modern. The wine bottle in the fridge was opened already with some missing- i rang and said it wasnt us so we wouldnt be charged- no issues there. Next we checked out the bathroom, particularly the double ended bath which was the whole reason i booked this hotel and room. The bath was large and clean with about 6 jets. BUT the tap handle was at the pillow at one end of the bath so rendering it useless, the plug kept popping up and down causing my wifes leg to get pinched- romantic night ruined. The king bed was comfy. TVs both wouldnt cast to mobiles despite trying android and iphones. Heres the kicker- the aircon duct directly above the bed is not well insulated to outside, so when it rains the water falls from the high section of the building directly on the duct causing a sound like hail is on a tin roof- even though it was spitting rain outside. This caused us to be awake most of the night. Upon checkout i politely let the front desk staff know of our concerns and we were told 'thats how its always been' and theres nothing they could do about it. This tells me they are clearly aware of these 2 big issues! Room 1114.

We were very upset with how the staff treating to gusts and at that point, I even thought for a moment to ring the police or our lawyer. Three people mentioned that each of them is the Inn manager at three different time; even difficult to make a complaint. Very very rude. The staff asked to leave us if we don’t want to stay at around 9.00pm at night. Very disappointed. It is obvious that the management is not caring/ less caring about customer service. We simply asked for the receipt for credit card payment and the staff refused and strongly verbally harassed us. He asked to read the booking confirmation and the company can not give receipts at all. That is completely illegal in Australia: I have nothing against him personally as he looks like immigrant who has no clue about what he was doing except treating: I felt like he was going to hit me any time with his body language. I am thinking to send group memo to all of our group of companies, partners, clients and members the description of what we experienced and think twice for any business/official/work stays in this place. As we don't want any Australian to face such inconveniences and bullying. However, we informed the company CEO in writing about our inconvenience and unethical customer handling. Waiting to hear This is the first time we experienced such disappointment from hotel industry: No way we recommend to anyone who anticipates peace of mind and quality service (actually, any sort of service) at all.

Disappointing.
Upon entering room we noticed only one towel, one hand towel and one pair of slippers. We informed the front desk and were issued with more towels etc but no slippers. Bed was reasonably comfortable but street noise was unbelievably loud even from the sixth floor! Cars and many trucks till at least 4am when I finally fell asleep! Room is advertised as ‘separate bedroom’ - it was a wardrobe separating the bed from the bathroom and room door. No lamps so you need to get out of bed to turn lights on or off. One floor lamp in a corner opposite bed behind a heavy chair and floor fan that we couldn’t reach! Clock/radio was not even on correct time. Close to Wests Club so food and drinks easy walk. For the price it was very disappointing. Staff were friendly. Close to hospital we needed to be at early the next morning so convenient location but would not stay here again.
