Pros:

Restaurant has good food. Staff are friendly.

Cons:

As a single traveler the location didn't feel good to me. Rooms outdated (fair enough for price) but mine wasn't too clean. Bathroom had hairs on floor. Check in was hard to find, it was in the pokies bar.

Clean, cheap overnighter.
Pros:

Whilst room was a bit dated it was spacious, clean and quiet.
I love that the cars can be secured safely in a garage or within the locked compound.
Lovely meal at the pub too.

Cons:

Had trouble getting in through the security gates in the dark, we just used the roller door attached to our room but may have had an issue if our car park was out the back.
