The pub (Area Hotel) across the road was very noisy. There is not much parking within the hotel, and although there is plenty of parking in surrounding areas, it’s not secure. Great central location, staff were great, room service were very helpful.

Lovely hotel in the Main Street with off street parking at the rear. Room was spacious with modern fittings and furnishings. Bed was comfortable and TV was great with Foxtel as well. Lots of power points and a window which opens for fresh air with a view over the shopping street. The hotel has a classy restaurant.
