Hunter Gateway Motel
Your receptionist went out of her way to help when I requested a room with rails in the bathroom only the day before we were due to arrive. So very grateful, it made it so much easier for my husband to enjoy his stay. Thank you again

Jesmond Executive Villas
No pay tv although the listing said it was available. I couldn’t cast from my phone to the tv as the tv wasn’t compatible and needed to update the server. Contacted staff and they were no help at all regarding this.
