Nice staff. Tiny bathroom and toilet. A bit dated, but still clean. The place was almost empty but you can hear every step in the corridor. Amazing area and fairly close to Olinda.

Lovely receptionist, the room and hotel were neat and tidy. It has its own pool and little gym downstairs. You can head out to dinner, or like us go to the local IGA in Olinda and bring your food back to enjoy on the hotel grounds. The location is absolutely beautiful and a perfect place to spend a night or two for those who, like my family and I, love to be in a secluded spot surrounded by nature. It's very affordable for a room in the Dandenong ranges, right near Olinda which is a very charming little town. The hotel grounds are just like botanic gardens, the air is fresh, and you get a mutitude of wild birds for company. The pool is cool and deep, and relaxing. Honestly, great value for money.

The property is isolated & far from the shops but very relaxed. We came from a wedding event & drove back in the dark thru the winding road but it was a pleasant drive. You are in the heart of nature. Plenty of walking tracks. There's a water fall nearby. The Dandenong Botanical Garden is also close by (drive). We'll be coming back to this property time & again. Highly recommended 👌
