Don’t book with 3rd party as they put you in the smallest , noisiest and claustrophobic window view showing the rooftop noisy generator and aircon unit. The card malfunction mutiple time for entry. The ironing board cover is pretty dirty and you won’t literally place anything in on top of it let alone ironing your clothing. Expedia need to review its relationship with the hotel as they need to improve the type and quality of room allocated for Expedia members

The pub (Area Hotel) across the road was very noisy. There is not much parking within the hotel, and although there is plenty of parking in surrounding areas, it’s not secure. Great central location, staff were great, room service were very helpful.

Lovely hotel in the Main Street with off street parking at the rear. Room was spacious with modern fittings and furnishings. Bed was comfortable and TV was great with Foxtel as well. Lots of power points and a window which opens for fresh air with a view over the shopping street. The hotel has a classy restaurant.
