Scary..don't do it!
Pros:

Bar tender was really lovely but business owner was uncaring, rude and unhelpful

Cons:

The room was absolutely disgusting with revolting stains on the bedding and towels and the shared toilet and shower were worse. This place was so bad that after seeing the room we knew we couldn't stay. The owner refused a refund because we had 'already checked in' but we chose to lose the money rather than get sick. The health department would shut this place down with the photos we have. What a disappointment after a beautiful welcome from the hardworking bartender.

Loved my stay. Perfect for what I needed.
Pros:

Great staff and a little hidden gem just off the Bruce Hwy. It was simple, but suited the purpose perfectly. They have a great carpark out the back that you can pull up with your caravans also. Meals looked excellent, beer was cold and locals were entertaining.

Cons:

Rooms are dated and could do with a paint, sheets were cheap which made them scratchy to sleep on, but it was $90 per night, I'm not expecting the Sheraton. Shared bathroom and toilets, but the facilities were really clean, so not really a big problem.

Nous avons réussi à dormir à cause de la fatigue, mais je le déconseille à tous.
Pros:

le calme des lieux. la proximité avec notre route. Le style de l'holel était vintage. Le personnel sympathique. La fourniture d'antimoustique dont le lieu est infesté.

Cons:

Nous avons payé quelques jours auparavant AUD$90.00 la nuit alors que le prix affiché sur booking le jour de notre arrivée était de AUD$83.00. Le lieux était infesté de moustiques, le prix du resto et des boissons très élevé pour somme toute un repas très ordinaire. Pas de wifi, l'armoire de la chambre très sale avec des détritus laissés la comme du papier dans les tiroirs. l'éclairage de la chambre très faibles, des interrupteurs qui fonctionnaient mal, la salle de bain qui n'était pas pourvue de loquet pour en fermer l'accés quand on l'utilisait. Des autres clients nous ont fié qu'ils avaient très mal dormis dans des containers faisant office de chambre et qu'il n'y avait meme pas pe papier dans les toilettes allouées à l'extérieur. En plus, pas de petit déjeuner prévu pour les hôtes et pas de coin cuisine pour se le preparer, C'est scandaleux

Nach 5 Minuten Aufenthalt haben wir die Schlüssen wieder abgegeben und die Nacht dort nicht verbracht.
Pros:

Nichts

Cons:

Die Unterkunft war leider sehr dreckig als wir angekommen sind. Im Waschbecken im Zimmer waren noch Haare von mehreren Personen vorher, sodass davon auszugehen ist, dass hier schon länger nicht geputzt wurde. Im Zimmer hat es muffig gerochen. Der Check in hat in einer Bar im Eingangsbereich stattgefunden und als wir reinkamen haben uns 12 Personen angeschaut und es war eine totenstille.
