I stayed in room 8. I was a little disappointed in my stay for a few reasons. Firstly, the photo did not resemble my room at all (and yes it was the same room I booked/viewed online), there were numerous stains throughout the carpet area and bed head, my fridge did not work - in fact, it froze everything I had in there (fruit, milk etc), my toilet kept blocking upon a full flush, my shower door slid off the tracks, there was water on the carpet backing onto the shower side wall which caused the floor to recede, and my bed had so many loose springs in it that it was not fit for any back to sleep in, nor did I have enough blankets to keep myself warm. Considering the price I paid for 2 nights, I would have been better sleeping on a bench across the road in Maccas.

Enjoyed the limited amount of rooms and parking area although it can be tricky getting in and out with larger cars. The daily clean of the room was nice as well. The noise however from other rooms and the main road can take some getting use to.

The room next door to us was wide open all night, it was not made up, I felt like maybe someone went in and left very early....perhaps a homeless person. I thought it was odd that the door was left open. The staff were not friendly at all....it was like we were an inconvenience.

We stayed overnight only and it was fine. In my opinion the price paid is too high for what you get. Room is old but it was clean, bathroom was more modern which was appreciated. Staff were nice and check in and check out was quick and easy.

Location of the hotel is in prime position, close to fast food places, town pool, a pub and not far from shopping district. We stay for the day on the green so getting to Bimbadgen estate was virtually out the road. Awesome location. Room was ok for our needs. Bed was very soft. Bed head was stained and so was the carpet, very badly. Air conditioner was amazing. Shower amazing with hot hot water and pressure. Car parks a nightmare. Small and not numbered. We were in room 7 so down the back in the corner. We parked close to our room but when we went out and came back our park was taken. Price was ok i thought until i seen the room. For the condition of the room i thought it should have been cheaper $240 a night bit pricey.

Booked two rooms for our stay. Both rooms smelt musty and needed some airing out, but they were very clean and tidy. Beds were hard. Shower in one room did not spray properly, water pretty much just poured out. Location was great for dining options. Easy drive to Hunter Valley Gardens.
