Very comfortable bed and spacious rooms. Check in was efficient. Only issue was that the car park for room 13 is 2 parks over from the room and the two cars parked in front of 13 were pulled up so close that they were almost touching the table and chair outside- lucky we had no intention of sitting there but had to step in and around the cars to get our luggage into the room. So parking is very squeezy.

Overall, the location is good, the facilities are basically complete, and it is clean and tidy. But I have to complain about some of the details. 1. There are so many pots in the room, but I can't find a stove. Do you want the guests to bring their own stove? If it is due to negligence, the management is unforgivable! 2. There are washing machines and drying equipment, but the detergent bottles are empty. If it is due to operating costs, the price should be increased. But your price is relatively high compared with similar types. I hope you can improve it as soon as possible.

Very clean tidy property with nice amenities. However the money is where the mattress is, for motels. And the mattress quality let the overall experience down as they were uncomfortable unfortunately.

Cute little hotel on the edge of town. Was very surprised based on the price didn’t expect very much. But the room was clean comfortable and very sunny which was lovely in the morning with the sunshine stream in. Easy walk to town, town is not very long. There was one restaurant option in town a Thai and two pub options we went to the Thai. Food was fresh delicious and very inexpensive. Lady at check-in was very friendly and was full of helpful advice. She recommended the Thai and also recommended the two other pubs that one was a little bit more expensive than the other but had heard both had good food. If travelling through Tenterfield, I would recommend staying here great location to the rest of the activities in town and clean and comfortable.

We were welcomed with a warm smile upon check-in, and given a much appreciated run-down of both dining and supermarket facilities within the town. Everything felt easy and our only regret was not having more time to spend at Tenterfield. Room had everything we need and although slightly older, was clean and comfortable. We will be back again!!

Can't fault this. We stayed in room number 3 and was more than happy with our room. Friends stayed in 1 but they were jealous of our room, ours seemed to be a better layout and bigger tv so that's something to consider. Excellent location walking distance to everything. Very clean rooms. Wouldn't hesitate to stay again.
