The room was small and cramped. The shower was small and had a large step up to get into it and no shower curtain which made the floor wet and slippery. I was not informed that the room was upstairs which is a problem for my daughter after operation. Owner never offered to change to downstairs room. Said they were full but I question that from what I saw.
Dishes were dusty and no dishwashing liquid was provided. Only one toilet roll for two people for three days.

What a complete rip off. A group of colleagues and I stayed at the Oval whilst we attended the Australian Sheep and Wool show.
Being that there was such a large event on in town the owner has decided charging $400+ per night per room was acceptable.
What we got for this exorbitant price was a worn out, dirty, uncomfortable hotel that for the 4 days we stayed DID NOT SERVICE OUR ROOMS! $400+ PER NIGHT NO SERVICE. This hotel is 1 star, do not stay here!!

Very comfortable bed, shower is amazing with good pressure, will admit the parking is a little scattered BUT! It works for them

When it comes to the TV you get your major 5 but that's it, I suggest bringing a Chromecast or fire stick

Amazing stay, 100% will stay again

Was a great stay.
Even though an outdated motel the room was clean and tidy and had everything we needed.
Great heating for the cold nights.

GOOD things:
-Check in was quick & staff friendly.
-Facilities are good with Electric blankets on bed excellent. Toaster & microwave very good.Lovely hot shower.

Things that need improvement:

-No shower curtain in room 12 so water went onto adjoining toilet floor.

-It was a very cold night and heating took a while to kick in when we first arrived.

-Bathroom has fixed louvre windows & cold air comes in. Not ideal.

Property, although very old, was surprisingly great. Room was relatively small but all facilities worked perfectly. King bed was very comfortable, big TV (only with local channels) was good and easy to operate. Hot water was almost instantenous in the shower with good pressure. Enough room for a couple of nights stay at a property of good value close to both performing arts theatres in Bendigo and city restaurants. :-)

Positives:
The room has kettle, cutlery, plates and bowls etc, mugs, glasses, mini fridge and microwave. No stove or pots/pans. Also has a TV and reverse cycle air con. Lots of brochures for local dining.
Beds were comfortable with plenty of bedding. The room decor is colourful and simple.
Price point was very good!

Negative:
The room was NOT clean. So much dust etc behind the side tables and beds, we were sneezing and all feel congested.
The towels were larger in size, but are very well worn.
Parking was convenient (right outside or room), but they have a parking space for one of the rooms (28) that almost completely blocks the entry and exit to the parking lot.
It was very hard to get the temperature right for the shower, when you adjust it so that it's not burning hot, there is no water pressure.
The water in the bathroom sink either comes out full burst, splashing everywhere, or not at all and will go between spurting out the water then shutting off.
There is a LOT of traffic noise at night with trucks etc going by.

The staff at the hotel were polite.
The room had everything that I needed.
But the room was cramped. I slept on the side of the bed next to the sofa. It had an extra cover, as the cushions underneath were stained. This cover was left unfixed, so the strings were left hanging by the sofa.
When I was getting out of bed, because this sofa cover was not fixed, I sometimes trips over the dangling ends. Especially as there was only a small amount of room between the bed and the sofa. About 8 inches.

Happy with the accommodation, but disappointed they no longer offer breakfast despite it being advertised, as the old-style breakfast delivered to the room through the small breakfast door was a novelty of staying here, along with the breakfast being a good feed.

Room was small and bathroom was old, however it met my needs. Bed was the most comfortable hotel bed I've slept in for years. Air Conditioner was effective and quite and TV was very large which was great. Super affordable and convenient location 5 minute drive to either hospital. Sporting facilities and aquatic centre is a 2 minute walk. Also Rosland park is an 5-10 minute easy walk

This hotel was fine for what it was a cheap room with a king size bed which was really comfortable. Very tired room though, very small and a bit old fashioned. The air-conditioning light illuminated the room making it hard to sleep. One night stay is definitely maximum.

This charming property has many of the features of a high quality building from the 1960s. Rooms are quite small, but very ckean and comfortable. Hydronic heating and electric blanket made it a cosy spot to return to after dinner out and an evening's performance at the excellent Ulumbarra Theatre. All these attractions were only a 15 min stroll away. Trafgic noise did not intrude despite being on a main road.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. My request to avoid smelly air freshener was taken seriously. The room had been thoroughly aired and there was not a whiff of nasty chemical smells.

This is now my preferred location to stay in Bendigo.

I'm a pensioner who took her 4 grandchildren for an overnight stay. Unfortunately a can of coke was put in the freezer part of the bar fridge due to fridge not being cold, the can split and made a mess nothing major but I was told it stained. Because the 5 of us were squeezed into this tiny family room when cooking some toast for the children the smoke alarm constantly went off, no toast was burnt, no smoke. Then we were accused of taking the motel manual from the room, we never saw any manual and why would anyone want to take one of them. They took $200 from my account, disgusting behaviour from this so called business. See you at Vocat.
