Swan Valley Pet-friendly Holidays

Good condition, staff friendly

I know the desired "vibe" is that of a cozy, quaint accommodation, but I would rather have less cozy and more comfort and convenience. There's no mini fridge, and our room had only one chair. There was only a bar along the wall to hang clothes. The bathroom was quite large. I'd rather have less bathroom and more room. An upgrade was suggested at check-in for a room with a balcony, but as I saw from the outside, the balconies were tiny and IMO not worth the extra $. I have stayed in many hotels and motels, and I have never been charged for a continental breakfast. For $20+, the charge seemed way out of line - especially for such a limited selection. Having said all that, I really liked the sitting/lounge area. The access to a variety of complimentary beverages was much appreciated. The staff were very pleasant, and the location is very convenient for transportation and eats. It's a short walk to the CBD. As much as it seems I have complained, we did enjoy our stay. Still though, it wouldn't take much to make it an exceptional hotel. Make the rooms more accommodating - add a chair. Add a minifridge. Put in an armoire. Provide a complimentary continental breakfast. Really... those are little things that would make a big difference.

All staff were very courteous & helpful. Breakfast choices were lovely and well cooked & hot. Hotel in good central position

Rooms are brand new very nice stay

Nice hotel with friendly staff. Breakfast was good. Parking was secure at $35 per night. Rooms are not very sound proof as you can hear TV from next door - this was not an issue as it was turned off at reasonable time, but possibly could be. Rooms are quite small but comfortable but remember they are converted shipping containers thus are not large.

Very nice Petty about the pool

Rooms are brand new very nice stay

Room was good, staff were brilliant. Sound proofing not at a 5 star level compared to some of the competition offerings but definitely would not stop me from staying again.

Great accommodation
