Our room was very cold and was thermostatically controlled by reception we felt this should be something that we could control even if it incurred a small additional cost.

I really enjoyed my stay here! The location is absulotely perfect; a quiet neighbourhood so you can rest whenever you want to and yet only 5 minutes walking from all the partys and the centre. Kitchen and rooms were clean and comfortable, although there wasn't any free food (such as cooking oil or salt and pepper).

A 10 min walk to the center of town and the wharf. Stayed at the ensuite pvt room and the facilities are at par with any 3 star hotel. Spotlessly clean with pvt patio area and a huge room to oneself. Excellent pizza deals for the rainy day for $10 at the hub.

We stayed in a budget double room. It was perfect for what we needed and had a great view over the city. Our friends had the deluxe double which is actually quiet a lot better but we were happy with what we had. I would highly recommend Pinewoods and have done so in person already. It would be fantastic for a group stay where you could book a whole cabin. It may look out of the way but its just a 10 min walk to the pubs and shops :O)

It was a pleasant stay - not too far a walk from the main part of town - but still being in a quiet location. Paragliders land just down the road. Cooking facilities were good and kitchen and bathroom cleaned daily.

Stayed for two nights and it was really noisy in both nights. A lot of teenagers drinking all over the places and partying till the next morning. One thing I would give credit to is the security manager who was really patient and helped us getting the key during after hours.
