Staff in the hotel were amazing, very helpful and friendly. Room was average and honestly the worst bed I have ever slept (or tried to sleep) on.

These are repurposed mining company employee accommodation. Great idea but could be cleaner as in mould in shower, and need a bit of work like exhaust fans in bathroom don’t work and are dirty. The hotel is convenient and have great meals and cold drinks for sale.
Property is very close to my place of work. I will use this again for work purposes. Bathroom was a bit grubby, exhaust fan non operational and filthy. Air conditioning filthy and noisy. Ac remote non operative. Evacuation plan non existent. Until I found it on top of the wardrobe. Kettle missing cover over LED lights exposing electrical. Once the above items have been rectified, the room would be very suitable. Property over all is nice, modern and has boasting potential.
Very limited facilities ...only 2 cups and tea and coffee provided ..no microwave or toaster or plates or cutlery..they expect you to eat at the hotel..expensive given lack of facilities
Very disappointing,our room still had food in the fridge,there was only 1 cup which was filthy,the shower still had a used soap in it,the room was hot,a pub that don't sell ice,they have keno but no A.T.M,you have to walk to servo to get cash and they don't serve shots,so never going back

The room was neglected. To check in was great, as in the way they cooperated, being that we were checking in about 10.30 pm; however, the room was very poor. You had someone's hair in the bathroom sink, the shower head was mouldy, and the shower floor was mouldy. The bed head screw was halfway sticking out and not screwed in. the bed made noise every time you moved and was not sure if the bed was going to fall apart. and the following morning no sheets were replaced or it was clear no one went in the next morning to change or clean anything which is why why we n ever stayed the second night and went home Saturday afternoon...... but saying all this the staff were excellent in customer service pity the room didn't match the customer service
