Quaint, close proximity to all we needed, great staff with a can do attitude.. Clean & affordable pub accommodation. 👍
AustraliaEverything! Location, quality of the facilities, the bar and specially the food from their restaurant.
AustraliaThe room was brand new and sparkling clean. The bed was very comfortable. There was aircon and a fan to choose from. The room was well set up with a small fridge, plenty of power points, hanging space and extra blankets (for if the aircon was too cold . . . ) Staff were very friendly in regards to both the room and the pub - I managed to get back from work just before 9pm (kitchen closing time) one night and the kitchen staff were very accommodating. The bar is also very nice and a comfortable place to spend some time unwinding.
AustraliaThe bed was very comfortable, the room was really big and the bathroom was also really big and clean, the staff in the bar area were really friendly and informative about the area.
NetherlandsFRIENDLY CLEAN AND SAFE!!! perfect for a one night out... almost made us stay another night!!
AustraliaHad cloud cathcer, sneaky one and Newtowner on tap. staff let each other know I was staying there so was well looked after. Next to Aldi and Wests
AustraliaA room above a bar what would you expect but it was noisy between the hours of 7.30pm until 12.30pm. And as the walls are solid not ideal to close the window as it would get to stuffy. Earplugs were provided but they had little impact.
AustraliaFriendly staff. Nice location. Perfect for one or two nights.
AustraliaClean room, renovated bathroom and good air conditioning.
