Great value

Perfect overnight stay on my way north - very clean, comfortable and attractive room with new bathroom in an old pub in the centre of town. Lots of vintage charm. Easy checkin, great location near major shops, plenty of parking.

This is a budget lodging and is quirky in a nice way. It has its own parking lot. Our only complaint was the street noise. Bring your earplugs if you are a light sleeper.

Loved the mid century style of the furnishings in this place. Very cool and funky retro vibe. Felt a bit like living in the past which was a very nice experience. Great service from the person who checked me in. She was friendly and gave me good recommendations on place to grab some lunch. My only wish would be for a more comfortable bed and that is just a personal preference.

Glorified backpackers hostel

Access, if door is closed, is via a mobile phone number, and up 2/3 flights of stairs. Hotel has quirky decor/furnishings. Room was large with comfortable bed. Help yourself breakfast of cereals, toasts, eggs, juice. Cleanliness was average - and could do with a spring clean.

Liked: Amenities
Location was central, close to shops and wineries. Beds were terrible, had to change rooms after the first night because it was so bad, next one wasn't much better. Overall, the place was ok, but sleeping there wasn't pleasant. The fridge hummed through the night, light from the hallway shone through the door and bed was painfully uncomfortable.

Wendy

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I chose this accommodation because all the reviews raved about it. How? I don't understand. It was filthy. The carpets looked like they had never been vacuumed, the frame for the shower door was caked with dirt that could have easily been wiped, the mirror was streaked, the walls and doors had other people's dirt that was easily visible (especially in sunlight). I tried to communicate with staff via hotels.com messaging but no answer. The only thing going for this place was the being close to wineries. The fridge wasn't working when we arrived and overnight it froze some of our food. Breakfast was a kitchen with eggs in the fridge, some fruit, bread and cereal. Clean up after yourself setup. You have to lug your bags up 4 flights of metal stairs at the back of the building. I couldn't imagine doing that if you have any disability or you are not fit. Never, ever, ever again and I hope I have helped others who see the 9 or 10 ratings and believe they are booking a great place. Don't make the same mistake i did.

Eclectic and unique. Lots of stairs so be prepared. The immediate area around is empty but it is only a short walk to shopping and restaurants. Very clean. Please add 2$ a night and lose the 1.1% surcharge to use a card
