Disliked: Amenities
Despite booking my room and having an email sent to me to confirm the booking.. once we arrived at the venue we were told our room had already been taken! Staff had others booked for Friday Jan 23 but they rocked up Sat Jan 24 and were given our room!
Disgusted, deflated and disappointed, we drove 3.5hrs back home!! My first weekend away for the new year and it was heartbreakingly disappointing!!

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Pretty clean and tidy (although not spotless). Room layout quite good. Had a microwave which may be a positive. Decor a bit dated. Very good value for money.
Great, afordable little country hotel, a perfect stop on our road trip. No frills but the room was clean, bed comfortable and a great shower. I would happily stay here again if in the area.
Clean room (except for holes in blanket, but that can be overlooked). Laundry facilities. Cleaner guy was so helpful. Good old fashioned motel with the best lamp chops from the hotel restaurant.
For the price point, it's pretty great
Clean sheets and towels good shower pressure, fridge and can park directly in front of your unit. We ate in the attached bistro, where staff were friendly. We even managed to get some vegan food. There's also a guest laundry.
Stayed for one night on our way from Port Arthur to Freycinet.
The rooms were clean and tidy and great condition, bathroom has been renovated.
TV channels were limited to only 4 programs
Only the fact no instructions on when departing on what to do with room keys.
