I enjoyed the modern room and big comfortable bed also being able to control the temperature in the room. I enjoy being able to come and go as i pleased as well. I didn’t like having to share a bathroom having to go through the pub to get to the accommodation stairs, there was no kitchen upstairs for tea and coffee etc… also there was no insulation from the noise downstairs in the pub. In the end though it suited my needs as i just needed a place to sleep for the night before travelling back home.

Nick, Drew and the nightshift bar staff and security were incredibly friendly. Nice to have pokies there.
The beds were comfortable and clean. Nice wide screen television in room. You get two towels. No hangars. Big divets in wood floor that was carpeted over. Felt like my foot would go through at times. Could hear bar speakers through floor but was advised beforehand on check in when signing agreement sheet. It was good music. Could hear car noise, but I had earplugs.
Some locks on loos and showers were broken but a wood door stop was provided.
Soap dispensers in showers and sink area. Toilet brushes in loos were broken. Showers could be cleaner.
I''m not used to the pub hotel style accomodations w/ a shared shower and toilet facility, so I don't know what to expect. It was worth the great value.Three other groups of people I met in town were staying there as well as someone from the train I came in on. So convenient to transpo and city. I'd give it another go. Just minor fixes needed and I'm sure they will be working on them. I'm confident in that.
Was disgusting. Handed the keys back in 10 minutes after checking into our room and booked somewhere else. One toilet SHARED with the rest of the accommodation. when booked it didn’t state this. Absolutely disgusting would NOT recommend.
Host Nick was very accommodating allowing us to drop our bags early so a big thanks for that. Hotel was fine, clean newly refurbished rooms but slightly dingy and unclean bathrooms. Main issue was the noise which went on late into the night. Felt like we were downstairs in the pub with heavy bass, thankfully as we were backpackers we had earplugs but would have had a hard time sleeping without (hence why I’m writing this review). I suppose it’s well priced so this - and not having an en suite - is what you get.
The staff here were friendly. The rooms are very average particularly when you find a packet of open condoms in your bedside drawer and an open box of tissues on the top
Maybe im a bit stupid but when you view the add for the place it looks like they have a bathroom attached - unfortunately not
Beyond the staff the place is not much chop
Absolutely loved it .
The beds and linien was on par with cystallbrook kinsley .
The food was amazing home made quality none of the typical pub frozen food .
Staff were so welcoming and helpful and happy vibe .
Chill quiet decent pub .
Highly recommmened 10/10
The bar staff were some of the friendliest I've encountered, they even brought out some worstershire sauce to put with my tomato juice to make a bloody Mary!
