Very small and above a noisy Pub.

I was surprised to find this was a pub with rooms above. Consequently pretty noisy. Room was tiny with no room for hanging clothes or fridge/jug for making a cuppa. Room was clean but hallways and stairways felt unkept and a bit grubby. Just not at all what I was expecting.

Shower was so dirty we bought thongs to wear so we didn’t have to stand on the tiles. The shower head was falling out of the wall. The walls ok the bedroom were covered in dust The tv was scratched to hell. Bed was very average,

Darwin

Disliked: Room comfort

Ok for a night

I arrived at a very busy time and had to wait for a little while before I was served and that’s ok as the staff were polite and courteous. When we enetered the accomodation corridor from the bar there was a fusty smell which was also present in the room. The room was a little small but ok for one night. Air conditioning worked well. The bed was very bouncy and any slight move from my partner it sent ripples through the bed so we both didn’t have a great sleep. The shower was good and hot water with ok pressure but a little mould in the grout. My towel had clearly been washed but it was rather stained. There was a little noise in the room emanating from the bar when it was open but that must be anticipated when staying at a pub. Overall ok for one nights stay.

Is what is advertised. Would be nice to have a jug in the room to make a morning coffee as walking down the hallway to kitchenette uncomfortable. Room clean and very comfortable. Close to amenities, shops and cafe.

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Very basic facilities. No fridge in the room, or jug for making tea and coffee in the room. Nowhere to put your suitcases, my wife had to put hers on the bedside table and mine on the floor. A little shared kitchenette down the end of the hallway with only a little shared barfridge, which is inadequate and inconvenient. We were disappointed with the room and considering the price , probably wouldn't stay again

Not worth the price. Room smelt strange. Very misleading photographs, there are 0 amenities in this room, and no breakfast facilities. The staff were friendly and helpful. Very run down and shabby. Definitely not worth $180 a night. Very disappointing.

Nearly a very good accommodation experience.

The hotel location was very convenient for us and the menu lunch and dinner very enjoyable. Room was quiet and quite spacious. The serious downside was the lack of a mini fridge and kettle IN OUR EN SUITE ROOM. With the shared fridge and kettle it was somewhere between a ‘Pub room ‘ and a completely comfortable , nicely carpeted 2.5 * hotel room . A good experience somewhat spoiled by penny pinching!
