Wonderful welcome from the friendly front office staff. This place was perfectly adequate for our one night stop over in the area. It is very close to a vibrant downtown area by the jetty and the rooms are clean and comfortable. The property is showing its age, and could use a little sprucing up, especially the old carpet. Both bedrooms and bathrooms were very spacious and well kept. Thank you for a great first night in Australia.
