I'd go there again
Very nice, toaster and microwave. Room had been thought about.
The only negative was the outside lights being too bright.

Set on the top floor of an old pub, clean, has lost of character and very affordable. For the price we paid, I think we hit a jackpot!

I liked the price.It was a room over the hotel. The room was great,shared amenities,old but clean and a shared kitchen.
I didnt like the staircase,especially with a large suitcase.
Also the entrance/exit to the carpark was thru the gaming room or a longer route thru another door.

Stayed in the Hotel section, it’s Budget accomodation and old but clean, shared ablutions and ok for the price
Accomodation in the area is hard to get
Had a meal in the bistro, huge menu
Maybe too big and wide ranging for the kitchen staff to cope with.
Had a seafood platter for x 2 $84 was good size and well presented, but the hero‘s of the platter the Gummy shark / Flathead filets were all encased in a stodgy thick batter and you could not taste what was inside
Would have been far better with just grilled fish so you could appreciate the taste
There as just way to much Deep fried product on the platter hiding the taste

My stay would have been great if i could have had a shower... I stood there for at least 2 or 3 mins waiting for the hot water to come up from down stairs..to no avail.
Instead of renovating the poker machine room try renovating the bathrooms in the hotel... they look like they are out of the 1950's and bring the hot water cylinders up to the first floor so the paying customer can have a shower.. other than that it was good.

The property is basic, a bit outdated, and probably could do with some repairs and upgrading. However, it is a cheap and convenient option for short stay accommodation.
