The room was clean thou a little outdated. The morning staff was friendly and courteous.
The place is lovely and the staff do polite. It is an older building so there are some quirks but we had a wonderful stay. The water was hot, bed comfy and everything to our needs. Breakfast was basic but good. The staff really made it, they clearly love the place and their customers.

Complimentary Breakfast was great. Rooms were clean. So close to all areas we were wanting to see.
No house keeping in my 4 days stay , never vaccum cleaned any day, only 2 people in hotel staff for some 30 old rooms, expensive stay for the money paid . I guess location was my choice since i do not drive while in Australia .
The property was an old building that required some renovation, despite that it was comfortable accommodation. Beds were comfortable and towels and toiletries of good quality.
