If I’m passing through Hay this would always be my first choice for accommodation. On this trip I stayed twice in two weeks (one night on the way from Sydney to Adelaide and again for one night on my way back home). It is central, comfortable, quiet and clean, the rooms are spacious and the welcome is always friendly. I also think it is good value. Highly recommend!
