Run down and overpriced
Totally run down and overpriced! Avoid it!
The carpets in the room were old and filthy. When it rained I had a water leak dripping beside the bed.
The bathroom was best part but temperature from the shower changed so much and so quick, I got scolded on my back.
For the hotel info - I was in room 5 and the waterfall was right hand side of bed - I guess you know as the paint was peeling!

Antiquated. Front desk not open for ckeck-in until 2 and not very friendly. Breakfast is a joke. We were there 45 minutes after opening and butter for toast all gone and no one around to replenish. Little variety. Have to make coffee with powdered substance and add water from a pot, not even warm.

We loved the location with good parking and easy access to town and National Park. The old hotel is interesting and the owners have some their best to keep it up to date.

The location of the property is great. The parking onsite is limited but there is also street parking. The beds are very comfortable and there is adequate heating and airconditioning in the rooms. The bathroom is in need of maintenance to deal with the peeling paint and mould.
The breakfast starts at 8am.

I love this Hotel. We have stayed twice this year. It’s in a perfect location for visiting the Blue Mountains and only 10 minute walk to the centre. Great value for money :)

Terrible motel in blue mountain
Absolutely no service from front desk. Seems unfriendly and unwelcoming. Plenty of parking partly the motel is totally no busy and likely only us as their guest. Can tell why.. low seasons and poor service. Our room is at second floor. There is no toilet amenities. Toilet is small. Overall the precise condition is just old. Morning breakfast is just simple. No hot food at all especially cold winter. Cannot expect much from free breakfast included. Everything is self-service.

Weekend away.
This is an old style building but could use some TLC. Very rundown and needs a good clean. Beds were passable but nothing special. Rooms had good heating. Lady at the service counter when checking in did not want to be there and felt more of an hindrance to her. There is approx 7 car spots for all those rooms so be prepared to park on the street.

The cottage was lovely and suited our family well, the continental breakfast was limited but fine. Needs more outdoor lighting to see at night, maybe clear the moss as very slippery.
