Staff were lovely & felt safe. Idealocation. Pity there isn't an outside space for residents. Also nowhere to hang towels from beach or dry damp.swimwear. couldn't open windows. Personally I prefer staying in local houses where there are more facilities. But for a hotel it's great.

Very clean. Friendly staff. Simple, clean renovation of old hotel accom. Shared bathroom very pleasant. Very walkable area (though perhaps not for solo person late at night). Pub music/noise from downstairs a little loud when trying to get a little one down to sleep, however ended before 11/12pm.

Comfy, large room with high ceilings. Great character. Bathroom clean and tidy. Good facilities. Is above the pub and function venue so obviously noise travelled up through the floor, even during the day. I used earplugs.

Some people may be put off by the "shared bathroom" and that's probably a good thing, because those people will miss out on staying at this little gem! We stayed there recently for 2 nights over a Thursday & Friday night. The staff were friendly and welcoming, very relaxed vibe, beautiful venue. Upstairs rooms were all large to very large, air conditioned, ceiling fans, king size beds, warm bedding, bar fridge, etc. Really surprised they had bathrobes and slippers - more than most "real" hotels have! Loved the building it was in and the rooms were amazing. The bathrooms were very clean and generally had them to myself (as did my partner in the female bathroom) Multiple showers & toilets in the shared facility so no issue there either. The only thing I would mention is that while the rooms were far enough away from the main bar areas, and the patrons & staff were respectful, there was a little bit of noise that filtered through - soon as I popped ear plugs in fell straight asleep. We ended up staying again on a Monday night and as expected there was no noise, no need for ear plugs. Food downstairs was great, wide selection of craft beers, ciders etc. 10-15 min walk into "Freo proper" which was nice to walk off the dinner & Drinks when we hit up the breweries nearby. Absolutely loved our stay here and would DEFINITELY recommend.

Fab Freeo
Nice old hotel in the south part of Freeo. There was a good buzz & vibe in the hotel and we eat & had a few drinks after touring the sites of the city, on a hot day. There was a private function in one of the rooms, so music did go on until about 12:00. Not a big problem for us on a Friday night, but they have regular music; so maybe not for you if you want a quiet early night?

The room was lovely and bright with some nice touches to make it very comfortable - dressing gowns, coffee machine etc. The rooms are simple but charming. There was a bit of noise in the evening, but nothing to keep me awake. I loved being able to go down to dinner at the excellent restaurant. Staff were super helpful. The real draw card for me was the location - walking distance to the beach and loads of fabulous cafes!

Great location and friendly staff! Heads up to future guests, the bar doesn’t open until around 10 (I think) so there isn’t anyone to check in if you arrive early in the morning. The hotel was exactly what we expected in a great location with local flair. Even with a bar downstairs open late, it did not disturb us one floor up.
