Pros:

Our bed was comfortable. Room was decent size and had 2 beds. Bathroom was decent size too. Heaps of on-site parking

Cons:

The air stunk badly. I am not sure what it was. Our doona had sweat and blood stains. The room smelt of cigarettes.

Pros:

Clean, cheap, comfortable room with good aircon and linen, parking at door; Fabulous pub meal 30 metres from room and, boy, they sure look after you in the dining room!

Cons:

Nothing that the property could do but it is in a very high traffic area producing unavoidable noise. Not the end of the world - just don't expect peace and tranquility :-)
