Good, not great.
No office for check in. Had to check in by cell phone from outside in the street. (which was mentioned in the description… Still a hassle.) Took several calls and more than 15 minutes to get an answer. The process was disconcerting after a very long drive.
The Duckworth is a heritage house on a main street. My room was unfortunately on the street side of the building. Road noise coming into the room can be excessive.
A surprise, large security deposit was charged also.
That said; the staff was wonderful while dealing with them. The old room had charm and they kept it spotless. Had all the amenities you could need. The price was excellent. The staff is doing the best they can with what they have.
It’s a kind of place I wish I could give five stars.

Good price and great location. However every time I tried to shower, there was no hot water and that was a huge problem.
The room was in desperate need of repair. The hotel was very noisy. We called the man that guided us to our room by phone and it was too loud for him to hear us. We left!!
Staff was friendly, close to George St and bed was super comfortable!

Fun place to stay. Would recommend hotel finish with drywall repairs in rooms. Shower in one of our rooms was too small! Excellent food in restaurant and bar. Very nice staff.
