Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Some rooms are compact — A few guests found double rooms small for two people, with limited luggage space – worth considering if you need more room.
- Older building with signs of age — While well maintained, the property shows its age in places; those expecting modern decor may be surprised.
- Parking costs extra — The hotel has a garage, but it comes at an additional charge – around $A 350 per night according to one guest.
- Check-in window is limited — Check-in runs from 15:00 to 23:30, which may be restrictive for late arrivals.

8.3Verified guest“The room was very comfortable and just the right size for three. The hotel is old, but maintenance is noticeable – walking barefoot on the carpet was a pleasure. All beds were comfortable, and toiletries and towels were ready for all three of us, which is rare – we didn't have to ask for anything. Breakfast was very complete, with staff replenishing quickly. The best part was the brownie – there's a mate team. The elevator was always available despite many guests, and cleanliness was good. Excellent location and staff treatment.”
