Please provide a tax invoice download feature

It was a very pleasant stay. The breakfast is really nice, and great value. My only issue is i need a tax invoice from Hotels.com to claim the expense back from my employer - and the hotel themselves are not able to provide as i did not book directly with the hotel.

Just needs some updates. Front of property messy in garden, torn canopy over restaurant. Tired looking. Needs a pool bar,zero ambiance there. I was the only person in the pool most of the time. Cleanliness was great. Housekeeping staff amazing, front of house fantastic and bar staff. Clean rooms and crispy white sheets. Lovely. Just needs new carpet and a spruce up because location is fabulous away from noisy Mitchell st, near the harbour. Food was fantastic, shout out to the chef. Most amazing steak dinner. The atrium is absolutely beautiful. Great ambiance there. Would definitely recommend this hotel if you can look past its tiredness. Higher floor would be amazing view of harbour.
