A night away

Firstly bookings.com I had reserved the night but the money was paid, no cancellation fee must mean no cancellation, had to cancel wasn't up to it, Brenda said I could reschedule to Friday, if they could resell the room, another lady said today ok for tomorrow as I'd already paid for it, and confirmed it to be the one off payment which I agreed, Brenda called back confused saying I need to pay another $209, for tomorrow so all up $418, with cancellation fee, so I said no as it was a waste of money for just one room, my only holiday

The room was very clean and tidy.....it stood out. The staff were very friendly. The breakfast was excellent and staff very helpful and courteous. I would definitely recommend this accommodation

Leaving

Location and breakfast included

A bit dated

The location is great. Easy walk to restaurants, shops and beach. Lagoon front rooms have an excellent view.

The price advertised on Booking.com is not for waterfront room. We were allocated a room in the second row building which has no water view. I requested a lagoon front room but was told every room was full and nothing was available. This was definitely not true. The place was almost empty. I was charged an extra $50.00 per night to upgrade to Lakeview room, which I was told was the only available. It was also implied at check in that I shouldn’t have been so cheap as to book on the website. I noticed only two other cars in the Carpark besides mine and a quick walk around the property at night confirmed that all but three rooms were empty. The other main reason for booking this place was the claim that it provided the best breakfast on the central coast. This was not the case. Shortly after check in, I received notification by text message that a chef was unavailable for breakfast and a hot breakfast would be bought to our room at 8.30 the following morning. I was surprised and disappointed that we were unable to choose what was served or asked about any food intolerance or allergies. What arrived in the morning was two mushroom omelettes which had clearly been heated in a microwave. Overcooked and unpleasant to eat. My partner does not eat mushrooms so was unable to even try it. I had two bites of mine but it was not very nice. Unusually the plate had been garnished with a sprinkle of yellow curry powder which gave a pungent smell and overpowered the omelette. We walked to Terrigal and purchased breakfast. The next morning we received eggs Benedict which was more palatable but again garnished with yellow curry powder which gave an overpowering aroma and taste again. Definitely not the best breakfast in the central coast. Not even close to the best in Terrigal. It is my opinion that they did not want to open the restaurant or pay the chef for so few guest in the hotel. There was obviously someone there cooking but nowhere near the expectation of the best.
