Nightcap at Kawana Waters Hotel
The carpet smells, old build, look like more terribly industrial area no presentable fronts reception. Very disappointed not whatsoever I so on the advertisement. I don't sleepover in a bar. The Hotel needs a urgent makeover and better reception to welcome the guests.
