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.

We did not get the room we booked. A nice room if a little more care was taken with cleaning. The bed cover had multiple stains on it and the jug had water left in it and had scum floating around in it. Not much can be done about the water pipe noise when the room next door has a shower and the hum of the AC units outside the windows. Next time I'll keep looking
