Lovely overnight stay

Perfect for our overnight stay. Well equipped with everything we needed and spotlessly clean. Great location, handy to city centre etc. We would definitely stay here again.

Basic accommodation but is appropriate for a one night stay.

Good location, close to walk everywhere, beds comfortable only issue is the bathtub to far from the floor and hard to get out, owner accommodating

8/10 Very good

Overall great, warm and comfortable. Only thing I can fault is the lack of water pressure in the shower - a trickle at best.

Unfortunate invasion of our room by crickets. Very difficult to sleep with them flying around and landing in our luggage. Staff very helpful.

Nothing because of the rudeness of the management we did not stay.

ok cheap stay in Ballarat

ok cheap place to stay. close to shops and eating places. we were lucky enough to be given a larger room with a spa bath. unfortunately the shower was in the bath and this was a little awkward for us older travellers. our room was spacious. had table and chairs and a couch. the room was at the far end of the building overlooking a fairly busy intersection. it was noisy at night

6/10 Good

At 3pm no one in reception had to call a number to get someone to come check me in. Bathroom tiles around bath broken. Tap dripped. Freezer door of fridge and all iced over
belinda, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

you pay for what you get. some lighting didn’t work, shoer and bath were old and very awkward. Fire alarm went ff in every room at 7 am. false alarm 😂
Jenny, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

This property is terrible! Cobwebs everywhere, mould in the bathroom, terrible smell of mustiness! When the owner was approached she stayed on her phone and wasn’t willing to help. I asked for another room with a walk in shower and I was told it’s only for people in a wheelchair. I have a disability with 3 spinal fusions and nerve damage and I was still told no! Then she said it’s booked!! She was very rude!! Never go there again! But her husband was very polite. Think twice before you book here
Graeme, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Offered ground floor rooms but then when realised we paid a discount gave us top room, completely out dated. Bed as hard as concrete, pillows the same. Very dark room bathroom outdated with shower over bath, no slip mat, slipped when exiting the bath. We were four guests and only had three shampoo/conditioners. Nobody at service desk morning or night. There was a side door which gave access 24/7 not secure anyone could come into the lodge upstairs rooms, even when nobody was at the desk. Check in, lady was on her mobile phone to someone the whole time I was checking in and I felt rushed to check in. Room was clean and cleaners were so lovely and welcoming (unlike service desk). Fairly good position was probably a 5 minute walk to town but very bloat woke all night to trucks an d loud cars motorbikes etc . It has potential to be a really nice place, until then won’t be returning.
Lisa, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Terrible all around

Our room was very poorly maintained. We found ants throughout the space, the bathroom had cracked tiles, and the bath faucet was coming off the wall. There was no shower curtain, so every time we used the shower, the entire bathroom flooded. Housekeeping was lacking during our three-night stay. Towels were only replaced once, and essentials like toilet paper and shampoo were never restocked. The room was not serviced at all—no beds made or cleaning done. To top it off, the iron provided was unusable and left a large stain on my white shirt. Overall, we were very disappointed with our experience.
Braydn, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Short stay

A very comfortable room except for couch that was too low to floor. Bed was great and the heating in the room was excellent. Spacious room. Been here before and the freshen up of room was nice to see.
