Good budget hotel. It is a hot spot for interstate people to come and stay. It is best to have a car as the bus stop is about a 10-minute walk. It is also good to get you to the city for food as the best option you have is the servo beside the hotel. Otherwise, the stay was present. The front desk lady was extremely friendly and helpful. The amenities were basic but sufficient for what you will be paying.

6/10 Good

It is conveniently located if travelling from the north, but not many amenities nearby. The rooms are small and functional for a good night's sleep, but the hotel is a little tired and can do with a revamp There is one small common area for breakfast behind the check-in desk, but there is no real space to hang out other than your tiny room, and it's too far out of the centre to walk in. The staff are amazing, so helpful and friendly, and I really felt welcome.
