Overall a good budget stay withing reasonable driving distance from Cradle mountain. Room and bathrooms felt clean, simple "kitchen area" (fridge, sink, kettle, microwave) Friendly staff and good "pub food". The building could do with a bit more maintenance, but still a decent place for a few nights
