Traffic noise was high even though mid week. Beds very squeaky. Room was clean.

This was a good place to stay for one night only. The location was excellent for us as we went for a soccer game.
The room itself was decent and fairly clean but the cutlery which was provided was filthy and definitely has not been washed.
The bed and pillows definitely needs to be replaced as they are not comfortable at all. The mattress feels like it has been there for 100 years. There's no foam in it all all.
8.0
Small carpark right next to club. Which isn’t a problem in of itself.
But there seemed to be a lot of movement past midnight in the carpark with all the rooms cozied up with just enough space for one car space per room at the rear of the hotel.
As a single traveler it suits me.

Staff were super friendly. The menu & meals were great & you get a discount for staying there. Also had a meat raffle for a bit of fun. Rooms were clean & shower had plenty of pressure & stayed nice n hot. Happy with my long weekend stay!

Very good prices. Worth checking dining bookings ahead of your stay. We missed out although plenty of restaurants / clubs in Bathurst

The room (7) had a smell of wet old carpet. Not very nice. The commercial skip bins nearby stunk badly and the odor wafted (during the night) into the room making it hard to breath normally. Otherwise clean and a nice shower. Would have been useful for some visitor pamphlets as to what to see in the city. Value for money except for the stench.

Beds should have been replaced many years ago the double bed was on a slope and so noisy so i slept in the single then there was the broken blind that i could not close completely so i had to put up with the outside lighting shining into my room once i went to bed ( No curtains on the windows ) and the AC filters fully blocked by dust/dirt .And being at the back of the hotel put up with screaming kids until after 9pm.

Need better pillows and no tea towel in our room

The rooms are fine, and meals are available in the bistro in the evening (no breakfast). Unfortunately there is no Wi-Fi. The hotel is about 3 km from the centre of Bathurst and has on-site carparking, this was almost (but not quite) full on Saturday night. I didn't notice what types of shops are nearby, it may not be possible to buy food locally.

Was cheap, what else can I say
4.0
Although the property is in a convienient location, that is the only positive. The beds are well beyond their effective life, very uncomfortable able, window blinds are falling apart and dont blockout the outside light and the rooms are filthy. Carpet excessively stained, exhaust fan caked with dust as was all other surfaces in the room.

Overall pleasant. Just wish smoking was banned outside of rooms - could smell smoke. On Wednesday night could have been staff around tipster/ben near rm 1 smoking.
Toilet seat rm1 is loose.

Staff were amazing and kind but the room did smell
8.0
The room had everything i needed for my stay. V-good hot water and pressure. Rm 1 requires the correct toilet seat for that brand as its dangerous especially to those even a bit over weight. The aircon remote was useless as buttons were missing and no labels for buttons. Food is plentiful and great with good options and cold beer and very friendly staff. Heaps of parking. The bed was very comfortable. I'll be back.great value for money.
