This charming property has many of the features of a high quality building from the 1960s. Rooms are quite small, but very ckean and comfortable. Hydronic heating and electric blanket made it a cosy spot to return to after dinner out and an evening's performance at the excellent Ulumbarra Theatre. All these attractions were only a 15 min stroll away. Trafgic noise did not intrude despite being on a main road. The staff were very friendly and helpful. My request to avoid smelly air freshener was taken seriously. The room had been thoroughly aired and there was not a whiff of nasty chemical smells. This is now my preferred location to stay in Bendigo.

I'm a pensioner who took her 4 grandchildren for an overnight stay. Unfortunately a can of coke was put in the freezer part of the bar fridge due to fridge not being cold, the can split and made a mess nothing major but I was told it stained. Because the 5 of us were squeezed into this tiny family room when cooking some toast for the children the smoke alarm constantly went off, no toast was burnt, no smoke. Then we were accused of taking the motel manual from the room, we never saw any manual and why would anyone want to take one of them. They took $200 from my account, disgusting behaviour from this so called business. See you at Vocat.
