Older style hotel in Goulburn cbd. Easy walk to everything. Some noise from live music on a Saturday night but ear plugs supplied by hotel. I didn't need them. Large bathroom with separate toilet. Great value for the budget conscious.

A good budget stopover in the heart of town with all basic amenities however, it would be a huge improvement if the showers were cleaned between stays. The glass was water stained and there was heavy mould growth on doorframes.

Great clean place great new bathroom plenty clean towels etc coffee, tea and milk in fridge. Aircon worked well room nice and warm, both beds comfortable and warm. Tv remote didn’t work and the lighting on the back stairs didn’t work had to use torch on phone to get up the stairs and find the key hole to open the door to get in, was lights there but not working only the one at the bottom of the stairs were there was other light from the car park. Also would ask for a room the other side from the alleyway as the bar is open till 3am and people go in and out a door that bangs and then stand and smoke laugh and talk, lucky we were in the pub playing pool drinking until 1am having fun great place.

Great value but would have liked to be told about the music that started at 10.30 pm- reason we stayed was to get a good night sleep before a big event in Sydney. Ear plugs on pillows were a welcome audition

Aging property in the hotel but cheap convenient and clean. Worth it for. Aa budget stay. Pub is probably too loud for families but for single traveler who doesn’t mind it was ideal. Staff were great and its clean large room. (But needs some maintenance)

Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort
Terrible. We had no choice but to check in even though the last said a DJ was coming and playing till 3am. But they supplied earplugs ( which did nothing because it was so loud my bed was vibrating). I would have stayed somewhere else but we had passed the cancellation period and were charged anyway. Was aweful. Only for 4 hts sleep
