"It was great to stay at an Historic Hotel one which I know a lot about. My parents used to bring me as a child regularly to Bendigo from Melbourne and see that hotel still standing is wonderful. Everything was great and I would stay there again. Only issue is that they have charged me for accommodation? which I had already paid for through Expedia, I have taken the matter up with the hotel"
