Cleanliness can be better as there’s a cockroach in our room. Basic stuff like toothbrush toothpaste can be provided since shampoo n conditioner were provided anyway. Cheap price and parking space available that’s nice

Recent renovation great. We ate dinner downstairs having a simple pasta & nachos. Great portion sizes and tasty. Rooms are all freshly done, bed Bewdiful and a whopping great TV to boot. The shared bathroom is hardly shared like the country pubs we like to fraternise. Shared mean you don’t have your own, but you have sole use of the shower and toilet behind a locked door. Fresh out of the box, the bathroom was flasher than my one at home. Lovely big shower stream and hot almost instantly. For just over $100 it was a great stay. Bit of traffic noise but an extra bottle of red with dinner fixed that! Eleanor who checked us in(at the bar) was very good

Room was simple, clean and all you needed for such a convenient location and price. Festive decorations were left in rooms for Halloween wknd celebrations. Staff were very friendly and accomodating, meals available downstairs from accom with children’s playground. Best to check in early for car park parking, shared bathroom facility updated to more modern style since our last visit. Not our first overnighter and won’t be our last.

Staff were fine; friendly, courteous to a fault. No problems there. Parking....had to park a street or two away....ummm.... Room smelled like cigarettes when I walked in, had to open window to air out. Could NOT figure out tv to access free to air tv. A small thing but a real pain. Food (pulled pork burger) was lovely and served quickly. Shower/toilet...only gripe is that only two seemed available, one more to spread the load would have been better. Otherwise, all good, thanks.

Parking was small , always packed if you had 4wd tight fit , rooms clean , staff was great . Listed as a shared bathroom . But it was not shared with the rooms it was a communal bathroom with everyone. Even though there was mutiple bathrooms , wasnt what was listed. For the price was a experience. But my expectations was higher.
