This place is beautiful! A great option, I love it heading north when looking for a rest stop, as you can miss the morning rush through heatherbrae and continue your drive fresh the next day!

Exceptional price and service. Only downside was the curtains that don't block out the verandah lights all night
Andrew, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had booked 2 rooms for one night, and were going to book somewhere else after our day trip to Sydney. We liked the place so much we booked the second night there as well. The owners have done a superb job of renovating each room. They were clean, tidy and well sound proofed. The shower head was one of the highlights (you will see) and the bed was really comfortable. I cant fault this place.
Brett, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Didn’t think much of the property of a night time you can’t even see through Paul lighting cockroach infested only good thing. Was the beds were comfortable. Is the fleas won’t jumping on you.

2/10 Poor

We checked in using the keypad but almost immediately decided to leave as the we found the other guests very intimidating making us feel quite unsafe .
