Where to start there were so many issues. I don't mind basic accommodation and have stayed in numerous pub style hotels but none that matched this horrendous experience. Rooms advertised with free parking but there was no parking as they had a charity ride using the carpark. I mentioned my partner was an ambulant hoping they could provide some alternative but sadly there was none. Instead we had to carry our bags from streets away. There was no teabags in kitchenette or coffee mugs either. The TV in communal area did not work and our room couldn't lock from the inside so fairly sleepless night security wise. There was no top sheet on our bed which was absolutely disgusting sleeping under a duvet which never gets washed and the bottom sheet didn't even fit the mattress properly! One of the drains in the bathroom shower slopes the wrong way so lovely if you want to wade in someone else's 2nd hand residual shower water. The hand towel dispenser literally fell off the wall as my partner was on the loo. Would sleep in my car rather than stay here. Good old fashioned pub - NOT. Capping it off one of the staff mentioned the junkies who use to sleep upstairs in the room. Would recommend you do not stay here.

The load pumping music went until about 1am and no one could get to sleep. The base of the shower wasn't tiled properly and there was an inch of water at the shower screen. Old bobby pins on the floor. There was coffee and tea making facilities and no mugs. Dirty dishes in and around the sink area.

No A/C remote in room (warm night), couldnt open window due to loud DJ down stairs till 2am, spot light shining on window, patrons leaving loud and singing outside till 3am. Door gets stuck so told to give a kick and shoce to open it, shared shower was dripping heavy all night and could hear across hall from our room. Was not a good stay.

Low price and advertised as clean and tidy. This was a falsehood, the sheets and towels were clean but the room left much to be desired in terms of cleanliness, hygiene and decor. There accounting system leaves a lot to be desired with many significant errors.

The room was basic but clean The shared bathrooms are a disaster when you get men in there after celebrating all night leaving unwanted faeces in the shower. Maybe when renovating they could make the shared bathrooms definitely female and male only or have the females only have a key to the female bathrooms.

Room 1 was surprisingly large and the sheets and towels were nice and clean and soft. Unfortunately the room was directly above the music which didn't finish until 1.23am. We had to pay a $50 cash key deposit. Of course we didn't have the cash so had to jump in the car and find an ATM. The next day when we went to check out, the Duty Manager hadn't show up with the keys and we had to wait half an hour for her to arrive so we could check out and get our $50 key deposit back. Probably wouldn't stay there again but it wasn't too bad for the price of the room.

100% happy for the money we paid!
Absolutely fine for the money. This is a room over a pub. Inexpensive- 100% happy for the money we paid. It is not a 5 star hotel and it does not pretend to be. Good to have a few beers downstairs. Free parking. Would recommend if you just need a bed for a night and like pubs!

Cheap and ok, but plese clean the bathrooms!!!
There is a reason this place is $46 a night - it's extremely basic - small bed, no TV etc. It's quite old with peeling paint but the sheets were clean at least. The shared bathrooms however were disgusting and pbvisouly not cleaned each day or even close. Built up rubbish, discarded soap bars everywhere, water all over the floors, hair ties in the shower that were there our whole stay, and one toilet was broken and consistently ran our entire stay. It's very cheap, so you can't be too picky, but if you're going to do shared bathrooms, then they really need to be cleaned really regularly just as a basic thing.

It was a place to lay your head for the night - air conditioning didnt work, bedroom lamp didnt work, a blind was broken and not in place, just sitting on the windowsill. The place was loud as to be expected from Saturday night music. Staff were friendly, and the place was okay in terms of cleanliness.
