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.

For a basic room to sleep it’s fine but the cockroaches in the room and the shower are a real turnoff. Luckily we were just at the room to sleep and leave. Staff there were great though

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!

I recently stayed at the Sunny Side Tavern and had a pleasant experience. The rooms were spacious, clean, and tidy, which I really appreciated. However, the in-house tea and coffee left much to be desired. I was provided a coffee pod but there was no coffee maker to use it with. Despite this minor inconvenience, the stay was nice enough, and overall, I enjoyed my time there.

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.

Very good - staff friendly & particularly helpful. Not so good - horrible smell in stairs & corridor. Not sure what it was, smelled like a cross between stale wee/vomit & disinfectant.

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.

The location is good and the room was very basic but okay. The amenities were very basic too. There was a smell of sewage in the ensuite and it was unpleasant. The property needs to be updated. It is okay and was suitable for what we required this weekend.
