    Everything was fine.

    What breakfast? I am aware that the Sherwood was advertised as,a B & B, but there wasn't any breakfast! BUT, the shower was amazing!!

    Excellent value for money and quiet when I was there. Be aware of my comment re parking

    The lack of hotel parking - my problem, Sherwood Hotel advice clearly stated that when booking - however I didn’t realise it was near a transit centre and I feel next time for me I will not stay there despite the excellent value for money. The nearby Council carpark in the area was not an option for me. Parking on the street did not feel as safe as it could be. A big Ute parked in front of me at one stage when I was parking the car and the driver carefully place his beer bottle onto the road on his driver side before he left. The car sentry sparked from someone bumping into the car as they tried to navigate the pavement which disrupted a group dinner I was at as I needed to go and check the car. (No damage). Not an huge issue at all - the hotel part seemed well run and calm - just giving my experience from a four day stay. HINT. If you decide to park in the area there are parks where the Lismore council CCTV is pointing at your car and I ended up doing that.

    Cleanliness of room. ORGANIC tea bags! Easy access and no human checkin process. Bathroom though old was ok and the water was HOT when it arrived! Art work was unexpected and delightful. They honoured the old “country pub” that existed and changes were sympathetic. Eg lead light above doors were kept and backed to reduce noise. Accommodation was excellent value for money. And quiet when I was there despite it being a hotel with a bar. Rooms are apparently soundproofed and with double glazed windows and no noise from adjoining walls despite a full house they did well. Live music sometimes but not when I was there. I checked for the time I was staying, and it may be worth doing. SHERWOOD HOTEL FOOD. Despite the wickedly bad food reviews on review sites it was recommended from a Lismore shop I trusted so decided to try it, Delicious. And caters for vegetarians. When I gave the feedback the bartender said they have a completely new head chef and he believes it changed their food game! I have to agree. Well worth trying if my experience was indicative of the present quality.

    Lovely renovated room, well located. Not quiet until the bar closes downstairs, may affect sleep.

    If you're planning to sleep early, you'll be impacted by the bar hours downstairs. Music travels through to the room. And tv ‘off light’ is super bright at eye level. Someone put something on top of it before but it was half cleaned so, affected my sleep too. Otherwise great!!

    Great renovated room, cozy and clean.

    Overall it was a fine stay. The shower taps were a little bit hard and had to be closed vigorously for the water to stop dripping. It also has no view of anything, frosted windows, not a deal breaker, and we were warned in advance. We arrived on the weekend so there were no parking restrictions; but I wouldn't want to arrive during business hours as the whole area is restricted and the building doesn't have parking of its own.

    Great location. Very convenient, close to everything. Clean, necessary amenities and safe. Excellent for a weekend getaway. Room was very quiet and also quite dark so that was nice for a good sleep. Comfy and spacious bed.

    The room was dark, with no view. Bedside reading light was ineffectual.There weren't enough blankets, so I had to turn on the aircon, which i hate. Taps dripped.

    Great location and staff, with convenience of pub wining and dining downstairs. Some lovely old-style pub ambience. Good value for money.

    Unfortunately my room faced the courtyard and I like to open my window to get fresh air, so I could hear the patrons and the band playing. However the noise died down around 11pm so not that late.

    The location was perfect, we could walk everywhere with lots of restaurant choices close by
