Good only fro price and sleep
Pros:

Location was good and provided off street parking. Towels were changed daily.

Cons:

The shower base leaked water into the main bathroom, the window was cracked in the main bedroom. There was no ability for cot hire. The bunkbeds were in a small room under the stairs that was the extension of a bathroom and smelt like toilet cleaner.

The stay was excellent could have provided little bit more milk the tea and coffee.
Pros:

Having not used booking.com for a while and unsure how to operate the hotel I chose, I turned out to be an excellent choice, as it is near the conference I was about to attend.
As events turned out, I would have liked to stay another night, but when I tried to book on.com again, I couldn't get the date to go forward. When I got to the reception in the morning, all the rooms were taken, so I left Ballarat.

Cons:

Having been surprised with locality and the quality of the room we had we decided to try and stay another night. I endeavour to do that once again on booking.com but to simply couldn't get the date corrected right it just wanted to rebook me on the same day to play the same rate again for the room which already paid for.
The issue I wish to raise with you booking.com is that you assume everybody is a computer geek. People of an older age been read in a different environment and do have a lot of common sense and knowledge but don't understand computer or app sites that well because of the language they use which is foreign to us. There must been away doing what I wanted the just didn't works that time I got there I lost.
