great place to find any costume you can imagine. my daughter needed a specific costume for a party and they found her what she needed, huge selection . store is large, can try on before you hire, have heaps of accessories to rent or buy. somethings unusual too. staff are helpful and nothing seemed too much trouble for them to help you, minimal parking onsite but plenty on the street outside. inside it airy and bright, change rooms are a little tight depending on what costume you're trying on lol all in all great place to hire from. deposits are neccessary

huge place to get lost in and that we did! guy on desk was about as helpful as tits on a bull :P told us room number and go out the door down the corridor up stairs out another door to back garden then up to 3rd floor or somewhere, should ahve wished us luck and packed us dinner! finally found our room, smallish quiet at least. more like dormitories than motel.pay extra for parking on premises so we parked out on the street on next block... very small driveway and we didnt trust getting in and out on main rd. close to city and showgrounds and food places. wouldnt stay again,was too compact .was clean and tidy tho

ive been with this bank for years because of the service and low low fees ,or no fees at times. the bank has had a face lift in last 12 months ,very fresh, very light and welcoming. happy staff, talkative . always go beyond their normal service to help customers. helped my daughter set up overseas and helped my son by giving an after hours email for one of the ladies so he could set up online banking. very happy

stayed here a few times ,beds are comfy but thats about all i can say. the place has new management, hope they do better. the rooms are stuffy,the shower heads in 3 diff rooms kept falling down and we did mention it. the tiles in the bathroom were broken on the walls. the rooms smell musty. you can hear next doors conversations, not the best at times lol. gave it a few chances didnt come up to scratch. the cost has gone up but the quality hasnt, very 1980's

Great place to get bargains at xmas and easter when you need a lot of stuff. Toms usually there too. Staff are friendly. Huge warehouse to wander thru , find some lollies that aren't anywhere else. I do find that there prices aren't all that cheap through out the year but its still worth a visit as you can come across lollies you had when you were a kid. Lots of parking down the back of the industrial area

Great little market to try. Lots of bargains when we went a week ago. 2 large punnets of strawberries $5 ,butternut pumpkin 55c whole. All good looking f and v not shoddy. Place is bigger than it looks. Cauliflower 49c went home with 2 bags for $11. Kids on service need some more training but overall was bargain city

Place is a bit pricey, partner and i only had fish chips and serve calamari each cost over $30! Across the road from the beach opp a car park. Nice enough but was greasy and the crumb on the calamari just fell off and was over cooked ,like a rubber band. Fish pieces were small too. Place was crowded and seats mostly taken up on a sat arvo. Says its the best seafood up that way. I can think of better ,sorry wouldn't go again

Maybe it was just the fact that the maze shrubs were regrowing and the maze looked shabby. Needs to be neatened up. Small kiosks around the places, bit overpriced for my liking. The windmill was kind of ok and interesting. A few shabby old looking puzzles around for kids to do. Place needs a modern day revamp and paint job even looks shabby from outside only spent about hour and half looking for something to keep kids amused and us .wouldn't go again unless major upgrade was done. Not a lot of staff around to help with anything or give service, disappointing really
