Great location!

Great place to stay and lay your head while visiting the Blue Mountains. No restaurant on site but supplied with a microwave and kettle it is easy to make yourself something quick to eat of not wanting to visit a nearby cafe. My only conplaint is that at 6minutes past checkout time we were hurried along by the cleaner telling us we were past check out - i mean 6 minutes come on.
