The room was quite modern and very clean. The bed was comfortable. I liked the large TV, and the comfy lounge chair. The shower water was piping hot, and there was an effective exhaust fan. The shower also had a non-slip floor. A bit more bench space around the hand basin would have been useful. On the whole our stay was a pleasant experience, and I would recommend it to anyone visiting Bourke.
