The room was spacious and clean and had a comfortable large bed. We booked this hotel as it had a pool. Unfortunately, the pool was not maintained and was quite dirty. There was no mention upon booking that the pool would be out of order. Otherwise, it was a comfortable stay.

The location was good. Staff was friendly. Pool was not working for awhile. Rooms smell and smell was bad in the morning. Bathroom in room 13 was flooded after a shower due to poor drainage and water did not drain the next morning. The smell has been there but the next morning was bad. Found a hair on the sink in room 12 and also the kettle was not that clean.

Basic room. Quite small but very clean Room was up quite a steep set of stairs. This was not mentioned anywhere when booking. Only had 1 night there and would have been happy with the room except our stay was ruined by people in the adjoining room. The walls were paper thin as we could hear their conversation They came in at approximately 11pm and talked for hours then alarms went off at 4am and once again the talking and laughing started and did not stop until they left around7am. Definitely need to sound proof the wall between the rooms.

The inn is about a 35-40 minute drive from Bendigo but it was such a great place to drive along one long road but for us it was definitely worth it. Tina and Ana were lovely and allowed us to check in early as the room was ready. Bathroom facilities were clean beds were comfy a lot better than we expected! Definitely recommend if you aren’t too fussed on driving a bit if you are going Bendigo.

Pool was filthy, restaurant not operating, bar not open, "double bed" was to single beds slapped together - no way was this accommodation worth what we paid! Owners should advertise the attractive amenities like bar, restaurant etc are not operational as this is why we booked in the first place. Very disappointed.
