Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I was told many good reviews on this establishment. Was really looking forward to a relaxing stay. Before I even arrived I received two text message wanting to know my exact check in time. I had also phoned after the first text to clarify. Front desk knew nothing of the surrounding and attached pub or restaurants. Stating, that’s not part of us so I don’t know, when asked where I could get dinner. I arrived to a poo in the toilet and the smell had seeped throughout the room. Front desk were not overly concerned. Electric tools used early morning. Bathroom sink had no drain cover and that quality echoed throughout. Could not help the fire alarm and recycling truck disruption, but it was icing on an already hard to enjoy cake.

Our room was upgraded so had a wonderful spacious room. I liked the idea of a rustic old inn feel. On site pub and restaurant was convenient. Easy parking and access to the cataract gorge and riverside walkways were a bonus as it encouraged us to exercise everyday during our stay. CBD with restaurants and shops are within 20min walking distance and we walked to the growers market, gardens and the museum instead of driving. The Pantry and Lebanese Gourmet were a surprise finds. After driving for 9 days, it was a perfect break, perfect facility at a perfect location.

Our room was outside a compressor that ran all night, very noisy. The highway was outside the window and windows double glassed but could not be opened. The aircon was noisy and made banging noises all night so the room was very stuffy. Wifi didn’t work and pub below was noisy. Not value for money at $195 a night.

The property is a fantastic place to stay, walking distance to everything, the adventure park was great fun for big kids like me , The only thing was a humming noise from outside our room. I think it was the air conditioning and heating units. They gave us ear plugs but that was annoying
