Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Our room was large and had clearly been updated, with a very functional kitchenette area that included plates, glasses, cutlery, cups, etc.
The TV had plenty of streaming services, although our remote seemed to sometimes control TVs in other rooms and vice versa. Free wifi seemed to work fine for me.
Supermarkets and other services were in easy walking distance, with a nice little aquatic centre right next door and a bakery across the road.
Downside was that it got very busy (ie, noisy) at night, esp on weekends - but if you don't have underage kids, that becomes an upside - ie joining the crowd for a fun night out seeing a tribute band. That said, kids are well catered for, with a big undercover play area, a reasonable kids menu in the bistro, along with colouring-in packs.
Also, while not a major negative, we could sometimes hear the people in adjoining rooms.
The most awkward aspect of this pub is that the "front desk" is in an 18 gaming area surrounded by pokies - and while we were checking in my 5 yr old became a little too interested in those machines for my liking.
Ditto for the Keno screens that displayed live games in that room and in the bistro.
