The room was classy, had everything we needed including a fridge, tv, kettle, spacious bathroom & shower, private balcony. Staff were very attentive and professional, food is available in the pub downstairs with daily specials available, tasted amazing. Location wise it is just up the road from Newcastle beach & the Newcastle light rail is a short walk away, definitely recommended if you are seeing a getaway up Newie!
