Bathroom had a nice ~10" hole in the ceiling. Under the hole hole a collection of dead bugs that had fallen through. The room was otherwise fine, but damp.

Great view, rooms away from pub area. Great meals. Our aircon only let very limited out, with 3 degrees outside in the morning it was very cold inside as well. We did complain, staff member ''reset'' the aircon and she claimed it showed 24 degrees inside on the aircon. On returning to the room there was no difference, just cold and yes the aircon showed 24 degrees. Showing 24 degrees on the crooked aircon doesn't mean the room is 24 degrees. It was very hard to have a shower the next morning because the room would have been less than 10 degrees. Just as well we had an electric blanket on the bed. Since the rooms were upstairs from the pub area there was a metal staircase to go down to the pub. It was raining, the staircase did have a railing on one side made of metal so nice and cold and wet and no lightning at night at all to get back up. Sorry your hotel may look great in the pictures but our stay was just COLD overall.

This is a small motel-style attached to a pub, old style and nothing fancy. Could invest in an update. Convenient for our stay, and as a sleepover. Lunch at the pub was fine, and on a clear day, the view would be great.

The room was supposed to be an upgrade, however, there was no chair, no cupboard to put clothes away, nothing on the walls just a king size bed, table with 2 stools, 2 bedside tables and a small tv sitting on the table. The bathroom had a leak in the vanity and after 3 days in horrible heat we had to request a change of sheets and towels as they weren’t forthcoming. Our stay was 8 nights. Comfortable enough as a very basic room. Staff were pleasant and food was pleasant enough.

Thanks for your review Jackie. The rooms are older style and basic Hotel rooms, nothing was promised that was not delivered. This is why we are the cheapest option in the area and no doubt this is why you chose to stay with us. As far as the horrible heat, we have no control over that, but there is a brand new split system air conditioner in that room, so the opportunity to control the temperature in your room was in your hands. Yes the rooms are not serviced, but as per our advertising, servicing is available as an option for $50, which you omitted to mention was waived on the 2 occassions that your rooms were serviced while you were staying with us as we were trying to make your stay as pleasant as possible.
