No contact with staff - no reception office. All transaction done by phone or online. Building and public areas in terrible condition. Room was very drab and in a poor state. Overpriced for what was on offer. Two nights of hell. BEWARE.

Great value for short stay 1 bedroom apartment was good for Our family of 2 adults and 2 kids but unfortunately sofa bed in the lounge Room is broken and terrible to sleep on. Needs to be replaced asap. Amenities were good and everything you need for a night away. Breakfast was good and something for everyone. Overall great value

It is a boutique hotel and very beautiful. We were disappointed with the hospitality as there we no people in reception and it was all closed off - you could only get to your room. Even though it said bar and restaurant, they were not open and we had to find somewhere else to eat. They served cold breakfast, which was nice. The yoghurt and croissants were amazing. Had the bar been open it would have been a totally different experience. Bairnsdale seemed pretty dead and hard to find somewhere to eat but we found a Thai restaurant around the corner from the hotel and that was very nice.
