Large comfortable room with old fashioned features including a four poster bed. Tariff is low on account of there being no in room facilities. Shared bathrooms at the end of the hall.

Staff were great to deal with and quick to reply. Surprisingly no sink in shared kitchen facilites and balcony was left uncleaned from guests for more than a day. Next to the local pub so if you'd like a quiet Fri or Sat night, suggest staying elsewhere.

They don’t care about their guests, they had tradies come in and make a bunch of noise first thing in the morning, when I asked why they couldn’t start at 10 when people check out they replied they had too much to do and that they would give me a discount next time I stay as if I would give them my business again

Good Morning Daniel, Sorry to hear about your bad experience. I do believe that management did get back to straight away with an apology. And I believe the message was worded very nicely in regards to what had to be done. Not as rude as you may have made it sound. (0830 - 1600) on a Friday morning is also when the trades attended. Sorry that this may have been a bit early. All in all we apologise again, and hope that you do come back to see the upgrades that we have desperately been trying to get achieved for 10 weeks.

good central location. Shared bathrooms and toilets all off hallways that were unheated. So extremely cold in winter. Another guest was washing his dishes in the sink next to me while I was having a shave. Very clean and well decorated, fantastic bed.

Entrance way has 18 steps up to landing with no lift which makes it difficult to take luggage to your room. No face-to-face contact with staff. Very limited (1 vehicle only) secure parking is behind the building with access via a very narrow laneway which means you need to tuck your car wing mirrors in and have to undertake a tight 3 point turn to exit. No washing up facilities in the kitchen area. Communial bathroom and kitchen OK otherwise.

Hi Geoffrey and Thank you for your feedback. Yes we do not have an elevator but the building has been here for over 100 years and we have coped very well without one. We are never far away so please do call us if you require assistance and we are happy to carry your suitcases upstairs at checkin or downstairs apon checkout, this service is totally free of charge! Yes our driveway is narrow but our carpark can fit 3 cars, without blocking the driveway. Or more if the vehicles are part of the same group. No washing up needed, please leave your dishes in the white tray next to the mircrowave oven and our cleaner will take care of that for you! As well as the 2 communial Bathrooms for Men and Women we also have a number of rooms with private ensuite if you prefer, and the exec spa suite has a full kitchen, lounge and dining area with dining room table and a Spa Bath in the bathroom, as well as 3 bedrooms.

The property was historic and had also been renovated. Contactless check in was great. The property was very clean. We did however pay for a continental breakfast but did not receive .

hello and thank you so much for your feedback. Our complimentary Continental Breakfast is free for all guests. Unfortunately due to directives from the SA Police we are not allowed to serve the free breakfast as part of our COVID19 Safe Plan so it is on hold temporarily until we are allowed to serve it again. We apolagise that you missed out but we must comply with current regulations and I can assure you it was free and you should not have to pay any extra for the complimentary Continental Breakfast

Booked a room with shared bathroom down the hall by mistake,(my fault) on arrival had alarm bells ringing with the entry area up stairs to a long hallway, just an old pub with rooms each side, were shown the upgrade room even before our booked room which was really nice, when we looked at the room with shared bathroom we went straight on to the upgrade room for an extra $50, nothing wrong with booked room just as all old pub rooms are, it is a bed in a room, $160 for our room in the end was pretty steep for the place, pretty noisy from downstairs as well.The pic in the ads is the upgraded room, which was what I saw first and went on to book without noting the detail, good location but possibly better accom for that price around town.

Dear Guest, Thank you for your feedback. The Buzzer in the front door stairway is to alert our receptionist that a guest is entering, as sometimes we are folding towels or watering the pot plants or taking care of other bits and bobs around the Hotel, so please don't be alarmed by the buzzer. We recommend that you read the room description when booking a room, anywhere not just at our hotel, so that you don't get any unwanted surpises and you can view pictures of the room that your are booking not another room in the hotel. We were very happy to offer you an upgrade, but on nights we are fully booked we are unable to do this, so we were very happy that you liked our Upper Deck Superior Suite room on the front of the hotel with balcony access. If you prefer a quiet room we do have King Delux Suite rooms at the back which are very quiet. All Our Queen standard rooms with a shared bathroom in the hallway are $89 and are very good value. the $50 Upgrade put you in an Upper Deck Superior Suite for $139. This is a very good Value room for Murray Bridge. We also have an Executive Spa Suite with Spa Bath and full separate lounge if you want to spread out in luxury and space!
