Room was average and smelt musty/dusty.
Staff were very friendly and helpfull. Had to change rooms because the tv wasnt working but that was handled very easily. Could not charge anything to my room as I had prepaid for the room. That was a bit annoying even though they had my card details. Overall had an enjoyable stay.
Close to the airport. A few restaurants on the property. People are friendly and the room is good. Water pressure in the shower was very low this time.
I usually stay at Gateway as I transit for domestic/international flights for past 15 years. I’m glad to see rooms are getting much needed renovations.

No hot water
The people are friendly and the room is good. I've stayed here several times. The last two times there was no hot water. It's too expensive to be taking cold showers.
Room very grubby. We complained and they moved us to a nice update room. Dining limited. Staff very good. Building very tired

The staff were friendly and helpful. The bed was very good and the access to the internet was very good as well. The rooms are looking a little tired, they are now looking old. The bathrooms are small. Needed more teabags and coffee sachets. No milk, even milk powder for a drink!! Has the appearance of a flash hotel (in its day) but needs a bit of a spruce up now. Especially for the money its costs.

Got in around 1 ish. Took about an hour to have room ready. Got the room and was a king size room not a superior room. Had balcony facing driveway so no privacy. Asked for superior room. Waited an hour n half. Gor the correct room only to have air con set at 27 degrees. Air con broken. I suggested a free upgrade as the motel was booked out. Another 2 hours of back n forth and then gave me a apartment. Got into it to have the phone not working. So no calls to house keeping or roim service. Local restaurants on site were great. Last night wenr to have my shower and they f orgot to leave towels. So had to use pillowcases to dry myself. After i got out i had the chance to call and the my towels were delivered to us.
There was no toilet paper and only 1 bath towel for 2 guests. I called the Housekeeping 2x and it was like 90 minutes passed but my request did not arrived. I went to the Reception to follow up. My request came and was assisted by a Maintenance staff instead who was very helpful. Overall, my stay was okay. Thank you.
Took forever to check in, new room they had recently renovated was a little too small and shower floor was so flat , water seeped out each shower time. Staff weren’t too friendly . Need to improve a great deal on service.
