The rooms were quite outdated and the amenities were not very clean but the staff were lovely and the pub is in a great location at the end of the main street so shops, other pubs and breakfast in the morning were all within walking distance

The staff were friendly when I checked in. The room was very basic and I would only recommend this if other places are booked up or your budget is minimal.
However, the bed was clean and it was ok.

The hotel is convenient to Wagga Wagga railway station and the CBD. The pub meals are good and the room was good. Having said that, while the ground floor is attractively renovated , the upstairs is still an old country pub with creaky floors and squeaky doors. Therefore it is a bit expensive for what you get.

Good for one night. Room ok. Shared bathroom badly needs upgrade. Light is on a timer so left in the shower in darkness even though it was not a long shower. Toilet cubicles small and difficult to get in and out of. Room was warm and beds and linen clean.
Dining room and bar very nice. Would be an A class hotel if rooms and bathroom were done up.

The management just focuses on the pub/restaurant at the ground floor and the accomodation on the above floor is totally neglected.
Dirty cups, no room service, equipments in the room broken, loud aircon, peeling paint everywhere are some of the real issues.
Apparently they ran out of sugar packets on our 2 day stay which shows the seriousness of management in maintaining the standards.
Only positive thing is the location and it's proximity to shops.

Do NOT stay at this property!! Very loud DJ until the early hours of the morning, so no sleep. Checked in to an already occupied room. Bore water from the taps and no bottled water to use for brushing teeth. Did not feel safe in this hotel.

The hotel/bars/dining itself is very good, however the accommodation was terrible. Peeling paint, threadbare carpets, clean sheets but a stained blanket. No tv, no crockery (even though there were teabags, coffee and a kettle!), and the unisex bathroom was obviously designed for skinny males. I discovered the female bathroom around the corridor, which was marginally better. For $10 more, I have booked a different hotel for my return journey, which has all the necessary amenities in it. Disappointed.

Staff were helpful. Downstairs looks lovely. Rooms upstairs rundown and need some upgrading. Dont recommend staying on a Saturday night as the loud music down stairs went well after 1am so were unable to sleep. Music was so loud downstairs that the windows were vibrating.
Maybe they need to mention loud music on weekends is highly likely. Wouldn't stay there again due to the noise and had to get up early for kids sports the next day.

The communication with the hotel was excellent. Thank you Molly. Due to the fact that the downstairs pub, bar and bistro area was being renovated there was nowhere to park but Heather, who we met after checking in, was very friendly and gave us a few good suggestions and we managed to find a spot near the hotel. The room was spotless and we heard very little noise from the builders downstairs. The room is not luxurious but is perfect for a short stay and was convenient and close to all the main shops and eateries. The bed was very comfortable but the room could have done with a reading lamp. The price was very, very reasonable. We would definitely stay again and look forward to the renovations being completed as they are looking awesome.

No check-in desk. You do it at the public bar. But done efficiently. I was there on a Saturday night and they warned me prior to my stay there would be loud music with a DJ there until about 2.30am and I should be prepared for it or seek quieter accomodation.I stayed there and did hear the noise but it didn't worry me. There was no remote to operate the TV and I asked for one and they said it had been stolen and I could not use the TV. Room was OK with comfortable bed, modern ensuite and aircon. Location was good close to train station and shops/restaurants. Value for money was good and I would stay there again
