This is a lovely hotel situated just outside of Geraldton. All the staff members we spoke with were exceptional and even booked our taxi back to the bus station for us! The rooms are big, clean and comfortable and the hotel itself is located on a bus route which makes getting around convenient if you don't have a car!

Good comfortable room however every time the upstairs unit flushed the toilet or ran a tap or shower, it sounded like the water was coming down onto us. The drainage must have been in our wall as it was loud enough to wake us up.
