"I don't want to be mean because the staff were very helpful and pleasant but the room we stayed in was awful. It had a musty damp smell, dog (or cat) hair all over the bedding and more flies than I care to remember. The garden area was filthy and no nets on the window so if we opened the curtains (that didn't fully close) we would be seen by anyone outside. it was very cheap in price so I guess you get what you pay for.."

"I stayed for three nights in room 46. It was extremely disappointing. The room looked shabby and badly needed an update. The weather was cold and wet but there were no spare blankets available in the cupboards. No washing up liquid was provided for guests to wash their dishes. No side plates available. The bathroom was very poorly maintained. Both the the bath and the washbasin were badly stained and cracked and looked dirty. The wash basin in particular needs replacing. The towels did not look clean. My biggest complaint is that I was charged almost $800 for this. I assume the high price was because of the Generations in Jazz weekend in Mt. Gambier as I have just looked up the offer now and it is HALF that price for a three night stay. Because of the extremely poor facilities and the greatly overpriced charge I feel entitled to a refund. I will not recommend this to anyone and will not stay there again."
"Studio room was perfect for one person. Really nice and clean, with a comfortable bed and a great bathroom. Really nice staff and location, did not eat at the restaurant/bar but it also looked great! "
"Memorable experience. Very friendly and helpful warden. It really was a jail, so don't expect The Ritz. Shared shower stalls reminiscent of boarding school. Basic double bed, firm mattress. Excellent hot shower. Nice shared kitchen. Couldn't connect to the internet but neither could Ned Kelly. It'll give you a glimmering of what society's misfits and villains experienced."
