Great value for money. The room is what you'd expect for a pub room, but very clean. Restaurant was good for dinner and had a play area for the kids. The inclusion of breakfast was a nice surprise. Outstanding value for money for a family of 4. Would recommend as a stop over.

“Ok but not great especially with unreliable hot water for shower”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Double Room with Extra Bed
- • Stayed 1 night
I was very disappointed that the hot water (in room 5) turned to freezing when I was having a shower and stayed freezing cold for a full 3-4 minutes. This happened twice. The location of the hotel is very noisy fronting onto a major road, with Dan Murphy's behind it and the Department for Correctional Services next door, bit of a low socio-economic area with scary looking people hanging around.
The restaurant was good value.

The entrance and the reception area is bit confronting.. junk piled up in the entrance; equipment , tables, chairs etc. You have to go outside to enter the rooms, a bit motel style. Have to walk past cleaning equipment, kegs etc..
Great location. There is a restaurant on site and the food was great. 20% discount when showing room key.
