Walls paper thin. People were playing Yahtzee in next room and I could tell how many dice they were throwing each time. The place smelled of smoke. Room clean but very dated. Bedding clean but sheets and blanket awkwardly arranged. View out window was of a wall. Had to go into bar to check in and back into bar to get wifi password.

Everything was good, but one thing that was not good was that when I opened the lid to use the kettle, it was so dirty that I couldn't use it. The moment I saw the dirty kettle, I felt so bad and wondered if other places were dirty too.

We liked that it was quiet and we could park our car and walk inside unit easily no stairs in our room Although some rooms have stairs. Room Was clean except for air conditioner which we cleaned vent under the shower as it smelt musty. Nice linen, mattress on the firmer side not the best. Great meals at hotel. We have stayed here a few times and enjoy it. Much cheaper than airlie beach.

If you want to sleep in stained sheets that won’t get changed the duration of your stay and listen to pub music until 9:30pm on weekdays and 11pm on weekends then this place is for you. No one answered reception phone the times I called. Had to go and buy toilet paper because we were given 1 roll for 6 nights. Bathroom was mouldy and the shower door didn’t close properly and flooded the bathroom. Only saving grace was that the bed was comfy.
