We booked our room on Wotif, and upon arrival we found no one at the desk around 5 PM, so we contacted the number tied to the booking for Sally to figure out which room and key was ours. She promptly texted us the room number, but there was no envelope for the room we were assigned. Eventually after calling/texting Sally back multiple times with no answer, we found the key in the returned room key basket and saw that the room was not cleaned. We continued calling/texting Sally with no answer. We ended up having to find another hotel 45 minutes away. Wotif could also not reach the hotel to help us get a room or a refund. Sally texted us 2 hours after we attempted to check in and get help to ask if we needed any help. After we updated her on us having to stay somewhere else, both her and Wotif failed to get us a refund despite us not being provided the accommodation that we paid for. Side note: the restaurant was not open at this time either even though the hours posted on google and at the restaurant itself said it would be.

I liked the old style ambiance of the place. Unfortunately our room had a double bed and I’m 6’4”. Shared bathroom was adequate but could obviously do with a renovation. Low doors could have been an issue if you didn’t look carefully. I would stay there again.

Disappointed
Disappointed, the place looked beautiful from the outside and has a great location. But inside there is a sad air of neglect with paint peeling off walls, the mens bathroom has mould, furnishings are worn and tired, and it’s in desperate need of a deep clean with layers of dust visible in many places (on the fake plants, top of mirror in women’s bathroom, fireplace in bedroom). It also felt like I was staying in a hostel with extra charges if you wanted your room cleaned during your stay or extra towels. This is the first time I’ve left a review like this and I hope the feedback is taken onboard because it has potential to be lovely. Wouldn’t recommend in the current state.

Stayed here whilst we went on the Blues Train. Easy walk from the ferry and to the train station. Shops, cafes etc on your doorstep. Lovely old building. Main door with after hours passcode needs attention, as we struggled to gain entry after many attempts, even with assistance from other returning guests. Lunch and dinner is available in their restaurant. Never saw any staff at check in or exit, just a staff member in the bar area.
