Pros:

The location. The historic nostalgia of the hotel. That the rooms are kept old fashioned - walls, windows, fire place, doors. Bathrooms were clean. Bed was very comfortable.

Cons:

Only one chair in a double room. Only one powerpoint at one side of the bed head.

An absolute gem of a place - I have been showing off the pics to everyone!
Pros:

The restaurant was fabulous and it was such a treat to be able to eat dinner on the banks of the river while the sun was setting. Absolutely idyllic! The room was comfy and I felt secure and safe. Bonus - the pub shut at 830pm, meaning this oldie was able to enjoy a quiet and peaceful good nights sleep!

Cons:

Nothing

Reliable, good value.
Pros:

Love everything about this place, and stay regularly on trips south from Brisbane. Showers are excellent, even if they are shared.

Cons:

Had the middle room this time, and it wasn't as good as the others. But served its purpose.

Pros:

The bed was really comfortable. The food that we ordered in the restaurant was excellent (Yamba prawns, chicken breast burger). It was nice to sit on the verandah

Cons:

It was nice to sit out on the verandah but the chairs were in a serious need of a cleaning under the cushions.
The room was very hot and stuffy when we arrived (April) and the fan was just blowing hot air down. It was a quiet fan though. 👍🏻
The windows and doors should have been opened up prior to our arrival. Once we did that and left them all open while we went to dinner, it was much cooler inside. At risk to our security though. Also, they didn't have any standing fans, even on request.
The screens on the doors need serious attention.
The staff blew out the car park leaves at 5 am (20 min of petrol blower noise) for the council to pick up at 8 with the truck. I think that's probably illegal. Obviously, that was the end of our sleeping efforts.
