Great value stay for a relaxing Barossa holiday
Pros:

Great room, newly renovated and pleasantly comfortable. Super clean with crisp sheets and fluffy towels. Staff were friendly and efficient. Close to town centre with good food options close by. Very close to supermarkets. It is on the edge from the Barossa wineries so you really need your own car to visit as most were 15-20 drive away.

We would stay again if another event comes up. Staff very friendly and helpful and clean rooms.
Pros:

Staff were very helpful and accommodating, rooms were clean and fresh (seemed quite new), very convenient from carpark to room and a good place to eat/drink before/after an event.

Cons:

All good. Room was very comfy and clean but not much room between bathroom and bed. Carpark a little tight.

Clean comfortable room. Great food in restaurant.

Outside noise disturbing. Getting woken up by someone with leaf blower at 5am, followed by street sweeper around 5.30am....... not great. Maybe look into double glazing.....
