Good value, that sums it all up.
Pros:

Great location to where we were going. We have stayed here many times and will again.
The gardens and large trees really set the scene.
Basic amenities, however, they meet our needs.
While we didn't need much, the staff went out of there way to help.

Cons:

This time, our bed was not too comfortable, the mattress has seen better days, we both woke up with sore backs.
Of the evening and with an event being held at the hotel, the noise outside of our room from people talking.

Need to maintain and upgrade rooms and pool area.
Pros:

Location and grounds of the hotel

Cons:

Room was not well maintained air-conditioner did not work, located next to the laundry so the room stunk on arrival and in mornings. Pool area needs maintenance, rotting wood on doors and ceiling. Staff very loud whilst completing cleaning and gardening especially in the laundry area where we were located.Gardeninh staff blowing leaves before 9am and directly in path of room so dust went under door into room! Paid more for a spa room and the spa was smaller than a standard room!

Don’t go
Pros:

I did have exclusive use of the pool as no one else was there!

Cons:

Complete misnomer as not a Winery or vineyard in sight and in the middle of a suburb. Only room offered through a dark tunnel because room’s hadn’t been cleaned. Booking.com shouldn’t recommend it as I was very disappointed.

Late check in with no apology
Pros:

The room was fine, clean, bed was standard comfort.

Cons:

My room was not ready until 3pm, check in was 2pm. The lady at the counter looked at me like I was an idiot when I appeared somewhat shocked that I had to wait an hour to get into my room because it was 'valentines day'. No late check out or anything was offered, not even an apology, just a glass of water and a chair to wait in. I did interact with one of the cleaners who was awesome and great and very apologetic about the late room, but that woman at check in, she was a special breed. Also, winery kind of implies that you'll be in rolling hills of vineyards, this is a TAB pub next to a highway.
