    Everything. Gold stars across the board. Special mention to crumbed steak & pie floater. Fancy pants stained glasses windows. 10/10 not creepy chambermaid ghost. Laundry is a bonus. We would go to church if the criterion was the church.

    The hotel has an old-timey atmosphere (probably because it is a little old-timey) with a very nice bar and restaurant downstairs.

    Lovely historical building, heritage listed so had oodles of charm. Basic room, air con and fan, TV. and shower. Reasonable price. And close to river walk. Would recommend - I like the old world feel it has.
