It was rundown, outdated, (unnecessary clutter everywhere), unclean and in poor condition, inside and out. The cleanliness of the kitchen, with musty cupboards, dirty dishcloths, unclean cutlery and filthy fridge and BBQ was a disgrace. The precarious shower over the bath was an extreme safety issue and should be addressed with at least one safety rail. Considering we were quoted, via email $330.00 for two nights and then charged $444.00, for the two nights, added further grist for our very unhappy stay. The entire property needs a significant update with modern facilities and appliances to bring it in line with similar industry standards. ##### RosemaryGould Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### julie, central Victoria Mar 5, 2020 Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities Was quite comfortable. Well stocked kitchen,comfortable beds. Information book needs updating,a bit more attention to detail would make this place even better. ##### julie Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2020 ### 4/10 Poor #### Darren, Melbourne, VIC Feb 21, 2020 Liked: Amenities Water tank ran dry on the first night of a 4 night stay, so pump broke and needed repair so no running water for a day. Offer of compensation (a couple of bottle wines to be dropped off) never arrived, nor did any further communication. Ideal property for a couple, great town but left to find another option next time. ##### Darren Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Aug 28, 2019 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Aug 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Buenos Aires](https://www.expedia.ca/Buenos-Aires-Hotels-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d178242-tAllInclusiveHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Golf Hotels in Florida](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Florida-Golf-Hotel.0-0-d211-tGolfHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Fairmont Resort Blue Mountains MGallery Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Fairmont-Resort-Spa-Blue-Mountains.h522363.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Plaza New York Times Square](https://www.expedia.ca/New-York-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Plaza-New-York-Times-Square.h11677770.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sebel Whitsundays Airlie Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-At-Blue-Horizon-Resort-Apartments.h2650727.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western High Road Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Edson-Hotels-Best-Western-High-Road-Inn.h116370.Hotel-Information) > > [São Rafael Holidays](https://www.expedia.ca/Albufeira-Hotels-Sao-Rafael-Villas.h8516728.Hotel-Information) > > [Shearwater Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Shearwater-Hotels-Shearwater-Resort.h11114220.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Aiglon](https://www.expedia.ca/Paris-Hotels-Hotel-Aiglon.h49327.Hotel-Information) > > [Bonnie Doon Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Bonnie-Doon-Hotels-Bonnie-Doon-Hotel.h20516057.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Tobermory](https://www.expedia.ca/Tobermory-Hotels.d59192.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [The Copa Cabana at Copacabana](https://www.expedia.ca/Copacabana-Hotels-The-Copa-Cabana-At-Copacabana.h33554165.Hotel-Information) > > [Motels Langley](https://www.expedia.ca/Langley-Motels.d8530-aaMotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Inn on Prince Hotel & Conference Centre Truro](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Glasgow-Hotels-Inn-On-Prince-Hotel-Conference-Centre-Truro.h428538.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to South Lake Tahoe (TVL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/tvl/toronto-to-lake-tahoe) > > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/yyz/edmonton-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Edmonton (YEG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/yeg/toronto-to-edmonton) > > [Flights from Winnipeg (YWG) to Cancun (CUN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ywg/cun/winnipeg-to-cancun) > > [Flights from Winnipeg (YWG) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ywg/yyz/winnipeg-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Dubai (DXB) to Vancouver (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/dxb/yvr/dubai-to-vancouver) > > [Flights from Zürich (ZRH) to Kastela (SPU)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/zrh/spu/zurich-to-split) ### Activities > [Things to do in Malé](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Male.d2343.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Manila](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Manila.d178282.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Rio Hato](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Rio-Hato.d6246042.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Cancun](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/179995/Cancun)
