This hotel is very close to the town centre. The rooms are clean and comfortable . The bistro is very convenient and the meals we have chosen have been delicious but probably a bit large. The cost is manageable.is out go to happy lace.

Cheap, off season, good cheap meals 4 nights specials, lift there but old and very slow. No off street parking, no en suite in room, not a big problem in off season, with few guests but it could be in high season. Getting bags to room was a struggle, no trolley or allocated help.

Great room & service
Were given a big QS room, room 1 on the back verandah. Check in quick, efficient, friendly. Room clean, good condition, great bathroom with nice brand shampoo, conditioner & wash. Good quality nice smelling towels and a very comfortable bed. Coffee, tea, milk, sugar & cookies provided. A little noise from downstairs till about 21.00 hrs but after that so quiet. Staying on a Sunday might be different from Friday night though.... Great price for a great room close to everything. Will stay again

The room presents well with a nice bathroom, however the aircon was set to a low thermostat and came on intermittently, when the room temperature was about 15 degrees cold. No doona or blanket so it was freezing and unpleasant.
