Might need to get rid of the breaking down tables outside under verandas. The ceiling looked like it might have mould. Curtains and bed spread patterns are not aesthetically pleasing to look at. Maybe re-consider the artwork - it’s not Sydney but the beautiful country of Mount Gambier. On positive note, staff were friendly and helpful and the bed was very comfortable.

Quick check in and the room was spacious. Freezing and draughty at night. The room is quite old but seemed clean. No strong smells but carpet was stained in many places. Unfortunately no breakfast was offered but was advertised when i booked. They gave us some extra milk so we made our porridge sachets in the microwave. Would not stay again for the cost and quality. Would look for another option abit further away - very limited when you have a dog with you.
