Very comfortable and food amazing !
Pros:

Given the close proximity to the rail line our room was surprisingly quiet. The meals that are available from the bistro are exceptional. The most comfortable bed I have d slept in !!

Cons:

Only thing I could complain about which is not a big deal is that the pillows are too thick and big - we stay here regularly so just bring our own pillows from home

Crappy size for the price!
Pros:

I came with my support worker,we paid the same yet her room was twice the size and had a wash basin.I have disabilities and could only just get in the tiny room and the bed was too soft and sunk at the end. I am not happy about the tiny room for the price I paid!

Cons:

I hated the size of the room for what I paid.I could only just get in the room and the bed was too soft.

good pub accommodation
Pros:

The renovation with ensuite was well done with great choice of features and look. The bed was super soft and the right size for a 5'6" bloke. Hot water was good. Ther small fridge was great with coffee/tea facilities. The room is about the size of a standard motel so bigger than most pubs. A code was used to get into the room and was also used for the front accommodation door. No noise from downstairs could be heard.

Cons:

Parking was at the back of the pub or in a carparking area next door. The AC unit did its job but although there is a remote control it only turns it on and off. There is no temperature adjustment available.
