The room was well maintained and comfortable. The property is in easy walking distance to restaurants and the Woolworths, if you want to pick up any food or drink items.
Can't beat the location, walking distance to everything in town. Room was large, kitchen well appointed, could have used a bigger more comfortable couch given the room slept 6 but the couch only had room for 3 but everything was clean and the staff were lovely.
Had a nice couple of nights, clean room, nice towels and a comfortable bed. Lovely location opposite the park and easy parking.Good value accommodation
Well placed in the heart of town and close to the Taylor river walkways. Beautifully clean, comfortable bed and lovely soft towels. Only grizzle is that there was no recycling bin in the room so I took my recyclables home with me. No single use products in the bathroom or kitchenette though. Very friendly and helpful staff

Great location across from the park and within an easy walk to groceries.
The kindest staff ever!! It was comfortable, convenient, clean and cozy. They gave a superb dinner recommendation and helped us navigate the wine country. LOVED this place!
