The property is in a good location however showing its age. It’s in serious need of a renovation. Very dated and noisy. Price paid doesn’t reflect quality. Facilities need updating. Rooms are ok but missing features noted on website. Carpets and furniture need updating. Popular weekend for sporting even but pricing for what the room offered was not warranted.

The lady at the front counter was rude, they hold $100 for incidentals but then proceeded to take the incidentals out on top of the hundred dollars that they've taken. On top of that my meal was missing food that was listed on the menu, eg Potato and Feta. The lady in the restaurant was lovely

Hotel is close walking distance to the Bunbury CBD shops and restaurants. I purchased a city view room at extra expense to the standard room but was disappointed by the view from the room into the rooftops of adjoining buildings not much of a view at all so don't upgrade your room selection. When I raised the matter with the staff they seamed disinterested and simply said they would pass my comments on.
