Dauphin accommodation from AU$92

The hotel is good and price is good. No issues with the parking at all.Good location.Only problem is very small pillows and as there is no reception on Saturday (after 1p.m.) and not at all on Sunday you cannot get any extra pillow. The cleaning staff does not speak English and cannot assist.

It would have been a perfect stay if not for certain things that reflected the lack of care in a hotel that could have been great. This boutique hotel was nestled in nature - and was a lovely stroll to the closest village with food options galore, parks, quaint shops & market stalls that you could lose yourself in. Our disappointments: We entered the room & kicked off our shoes to find our feet immediately coated with dust. The toilet was dirty - the cleaner literally missed a yucky spot. The door handle fell off and we realised that the handle was attached loosely, which meant that the room was not secure. We brought the handle to the reception desk twice, and it was on the second day that the door was fixed. On the second day, we came back to a room that was half made - the sheets were haphazardly thrown over the bed and still creased from the night before. The staff service was very inconsistent. We had one friendly receptionist and the rest of them looked either bored or grim. I read the mostly amazing reviews about this hotel, hence I booked the room. It was quite disappointing.

VRBO need to keep a check on these properties, because this one now, no longer looks as good in real life as what the photos show. On the plus side,this house has excellent WIFI,a great big freezer & large seperate fridge, great tv with Netfix, in English too, good selection of utensils in the kitchen & a lovely, but v v cold swimming pool, it leaks & needs topping up.We r campers, we are use to roughing it, but it was v disappointing when we first arrived. It seems since taking the photos he has just let everything rot. Including mattresses around pool.The house is ok,but the wooden floorboards upstairs make a LOT of creaking noise, so if you need to use the bathroom during the night you are likely to wake everyone up while you get there. The tiles in the kitchen have not been grouted &a few around the sink kept falling off. Shower upstairs leaks into the downstairs bathroom, doesnt have a washer, so as much water shoots the opposite direction to what comes out the head & doesnt attach to the wall, so I had to sling it over my shoulder while I washed. I weeded around the pool and cleaned the outside tables. The pool slabs are crumbling & breaking up & he had given up laying the path, so shoved a few bricks under the edge to keep it from collapsing, then dumped the rest in a big pile with old pile of tarps.Bbq v wobbly and filthy. He lives in the same building with locked doors & walks through the outside rented area several times a day.I like privacy when on holiday. Shame.
