I did not feel that the property had much in the way of attention for years. This would be a last resort option in my view.

Pretty good stay - Standard fare

It was a pretty standard fare, regional hotel. Things are a bit tired including the bed base. One tip though is to ask for a room that isn’t above the pokie machine room. Although it isn’t loud after 10pm, it would be a bit annoying if you’re trying to sleep earlier.

Great if you are okay with cigarette smoke

Impossible to have a non-smoking room as smoking is allowed on the verandah and all the rooms open onto verandahs.

This property (for the third time you have asked me to review) was substandard. Had no reception. It was part of a hotel. Didn’t have any basic facilities. Smashed bedside lamp (singular) and had substandard patrons who were drunk and noisy all night but with no reception, there was no one to contact. Terrible. Wanted to cancel second night but couldn’t contact anyone. This place was misrepresented and an offence against Australian Consumer Law.

This place was quite basic. The shower leaked. When we booked we could see that it was basic but there was no mention about our room being upstairs. I find stairs difficult, so this wasn’t ideal for us.
