Reviews and Ratings
The hotel provided spacious rooms with a queen bed and 2 singles, offering plenty of space for our child to play. The rooms were always very clean and tidy, but lacked personal care products. The outdoor sitting area beside the room was a nice touch. The service was fantastic, with friendly and welcoming staff, though some confusion with the breakfast timing. The location was excellent, convenient and quiet for travelers, but noise from workers leaving the mining camp could disrupt sleep. The dining options were reasonable, with in-house dining available at $15 per head. The facilities were adequate, and the overall value for money was decent.
The hotel is situated conveniently close to the highway but remains quiet, with a slightly eerie presence for those who are perceptive. The service was exceptional, going above and beyond to ensure our stay was memorable. The dining is reasonably priced with freshly cooked meals but could offer a bit more variety. Overall, a comfortable stay with some minor quirks.
The hotel was spacious with a queen bed and 2 singles, offering plenty of room for our 4-year-old to play. The interior corridor location was peaceful without car access, but the requirement to carry food to another BBQ area was a downside.
