The lady receptionist was very friendly and helpful. Whilst the property is old, our room was very clean and our bed was comfortable. The RSL is a few doors down the road and we had an excellent meal there. There is also a pizza place next door. On site parking was an available. It was a perfect and convenient stop for us on our way to Sydney.
