Misleading - this is a cheap casino motel

This is not a hotel. It is a dingy, cheap motel in the back of a loud and smelly casino/bar. They market themselves as family friendly but I would never bring a child here. The food at the bar was decent which is the only reason I don’t give it 1/5 stars across the board.

Clean with old facilities

The room was cleaner than most motels in Sydney. However, the AC was very loud and noisy, so it had to be turned off before sleeping. In addition, the AC remote did not have functional batteries installed, so I had to replace them with the ones in the TV remote. Thankfully, they worked.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff were accommodating, nice and polite. The Tavern itself was great. Accommodation was pretty average. Beds (Room #13: 2 x single beds) were ok. Pillows were extremely lumpy. The room was very noisy, even though there were rooms either side - it sounded like an industrial washing machine that was going all night… The bathroom sliding door wouldn’t slide and the toilet was in the weirdest spot I’ve ever seen!! You had to sit sideways on it to use it and reach far across to get the toilet paper!! If you need a quick place to crash for a few hours, it’s fair. If you looking for something with a bit of comfort, this room at this location, isn’t for you. Good staff though!

The food was quite good. The room had what we needed. A little bit of staining on the carpet, but the room was clean overall. The TV wasn’t connected to the TV so wasn’t able to use the Smart TV options.
