The room was clean, not so much the courtyard. We had expired milk in the fridge, which was replaced on request. A continental breakfast was advertised. I feel a few packets of cereal, a couple of slices of bread with jam & a small cup of juice doesn’t really constitute a continental breakfast.

The room was spacious; the bed was great. The continental breakfast was average. The outside sitting area was filthy. The toilet flush kept sticking. The water pressure is low. THE NOISE FROM THE PASSING TRAINS BLOWING THEIR HORNS DURING THE NIGHT WAS VERY ANNOYING.

Not so great

Right bang on the railway line. Trains all night. Not much sleep as the train actually toots right in front of the building. Could not tell anyone to stay here. Air conditioner so loud and screeching like a next of birds.the studio apartment is nicely appointed and continental breakfast lovely touch

Portman's House is the best accommodation I have stayed in. I have stayed in all the accommodations in Scone, and this one by far surpasses the others. I LOVE that there is a separate room with a TV so that the couple has a TV each. I LOVE that there is a washing machine and dryer, so do not need to go to the launderette. I LOVE that the car has its own garage, and not out in the elements. I love that there is an open private space to sit out with coffee. I cannot give this place a high enough praise, it has been well thought out with a woman;s touch. I LOVE that breakfast was supplied. The bed was very comfortable and plenty of hanging space.I LOVED that there was double-glazing on the bedroom window. Thank you for the best comfortable experience. I shall return.

Overall the property was fantastic, it was modern, neat and tidy, the bed was extremely comfortable. My only criticisms (and these were very minor) was the carpet was a little dirty. I was wearing socks inside and they got a little dirty. The other was my towel was starting to show a little wear and tear. They were the only two tiny things I could find wrong, everything else was great and I enjoyed my stay.

Very convenient location in town with undercover parking. Great communication and easy check in. Exceptionally high standard of presentation and cleanliness. Bed was very comfortable and new, with immaculate linen and a choice of firm or soft pillows. All essentials for breakfast and tea/nespresso coffee machine. Lovely toiletries were a pleasant surprise.
Highly recommended.

Super comfortable accommodation. Every detail has been considered. As a solo female traveler it also felt super safe.

Erin is lovely. She communicated all necessary information in advance. She even left a couple of extra bottles of water for me due to the current \"water situation\" in Scone. Very thoughtful.

Good position in town

The entry to the complex is at the back of the Coles carpark.
The train line is also at the back of this complex and the coal trains run all night and most of them toot
their horns, so a very interrupted sleep. Our apartment was the one closest to the entry point, maybe
an apartment towards the middle or end would be better. You get used to the rumble but the toot of the
horn would carry thru the whole area.

Good location, despite no reception desk

There isn't a reception as such, but you get clear instructions sent by SMS on how to get in and where things like the keys are.
Probably would have helped to say how to check out (there's a drop box next to the gate for the door pass), but a good place to stay location wise if visiting Scone.

A small issue was with a few insects getting in, but that was probably more to do with the unseasonally warm weather (being air conditioned, this may have had an effect). Though this happens anywhere, so not that unusual.
