The smoke alarm had been taken from the room and that was very disconcerting. The little fridge froze all my fresh fruit. The room was clean and adequate. There was no telephone in the room which was a little strange but not a huge concern.

Nice peaceful stay

A good hotel on the main road in the middle of nowhere, very quiet and peaceful with a nice restaurant attached. Great service from all the staff but the room we were in could do with a little uplift, nothing major just a stiff door and cover missing from the aircon.

Excellent friendly check in. Clean room but mattress was like mush. Bathroom fan partly disassembled. Room door missing trim and deadbolt latch hook. Various noises throughout night ie AC and outside. Property lot rough. Dated property trying to keep up. Ive stayed there years ago and it was much better. Budget priced for general area. I will pay & stay at higher property in future. Restaurant attached was separate ownership. Food there was excellent, well priced and good portions. Service was excellent.

The property was okay for a 1 night stay. However, there is no elevator in property, which means that we had to haul our suitcases up the stairs. The carpets were not very clean to look at. Otherwise, the place was okay.

We asked for a main floor room to accommodate a disability. Even though we didn’t check in until 10:00 pm, they honoured our request. Room was clean and nice. Parking was right outside the door.
