Great little pub - reasonably quiet, nice and clean AND close to just about everything. The only improvement I could suggest is darker window blinds to keep the morning light out a bit. It reminds me of an outback Australian pub where the meals are great, the beer is cold, and the accomodation does the job.

The room was really spacious and fit our family of four. Shared bathrooms was not ideal but the location was great. Was probably a bit noisy until the bar downstairs closed, at around 11pm.

I enjoyed my stay with my friends @Erko Hotel over a birthday weekend, it is an old pub and it comes with pub 4 star life with share bathrooms,kitchen ect. The room i had was spacious ,clean and air conditioned with a nice outlook. Staff were friendly and helpful the food was great that we ordered downstairs along with the tunes and entertainment. The vibrant lifestyle of Erko and Newtown.are recommended if you like alt and it wasn't as noisy upstairs as i had read about. There is a A.I generated lousy review i had read causing me alarm however after arrival i didn't agree with what had been raised and i believe this should be ignored . I think it was terribly unfair to the Erko and people who like to stay in this type of accommodation. Peter. AU
