Noise in the corridor was terrible all night. Door closers were faulty and the room doors slammed all day and night. The TV is so small it's useless, and the volume was set way too low. No servicing of the room at all and run out of sugar, coffee and milk. The meals were tasty but mostly cold to warm at best. ##### Geoff Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Abbie Jul 27, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities I have never in my life experience this i was refused by the staff to stay with them after paying for the room the staff said they dont accept local to stay at their hotel meaning people living around the central coast area i was turned down by the staff i even them i am about 30min away from home and i got dropped off have no place else to stay and they said theres other accommodation available around the corner i wana know whats the reason behind this policy after turning down by them i was outside sitting there calling all the accommodations around the area as most were fully booked and finally got an offer from Venus hotel about 15min walk from The lakes hotel does did anyone experience the same thing or not ? i want to know why booked and plan my trip prior two weeks before the event that i went to attend to find out they wont allow me to stay cus im a local so frustrating so i had to pay an extra room while waiting to get a refund after i checked in to Venus resort and they call me about an hour later and check if im still checking in or not are they serious ? i said no your staff were so rude and said they dont accept locals and her answer was oh im really sorry about that yes we dont allow local the answer i get was oh its just our policy so i hang up the phone but thank God lovely staff at Venus resort offer me great service.... ##### Abbie Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### mmichael Oct 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities nice placce ##### mmichael Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Apr 25, 2019 Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lack of any person who could provide reliable information.
