Very Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
One night stay, our room was comfortable, roomy, good bed and linen, how ever the cleaning staff need to be more particular looking at exhaust fan in bathroom, under vanity and around windows, also bathroom floor grout needs a steam clean . Often cleaners are pushed for time and thats where
good management plays it part, l can recommend this accommodation for a comfortable night.
Clean and comfy. Staff are awesome. Breakfast has limited choices and parking is a bit limited in the area where we stayed but overall it was great and will definitely book again next time.
movies, hotwater, heat lamp in the toilet are all excellent!! curtains & leak in the toilet needs to be fixed, ac/heating is ok but needs replacing. needs soft pillows. place is nice quiet and ambiance is ok. staff friendly and amazing. price affordable.

Wouldn’t rate it, grounds looked great but the room was not set out for our booking
We booked the room for sleep 3 adults, we were provided with 2 x bath towels and 2 x cups for coffee/tea.
The fridge was left with last persons medication in it as well

On arrival there was no one at reception waited 10-15 min before I could check in. Rooms are aged and not exactly clean. I don’t think I would stay here again.
Reception area nice with water feature. Room is large. Bathroom is opposite foyer entrance and through a door opposite side to bathroom is a large bedroom with tv and beds. Bedroom was very cold even with reverse cycle aircon. You could not change the temperature locked on a set setting. Bathroom old and cold. Spa not working. Walked passed another room and a rubbish bin had rubbish overflowing and all over the ground. Close to club and Sovereign Hill. Expensive for what it was.
