We booked this room as we needed a one nights accommodation before getting onto one of the luxury house boats for a week. The staff were very welcoming gave us a great reccomendation for dinner that was within walking distance. It was exactly as we expected nice and close to shops, the main street and attractions and especially the port where we needed to be early next morning. It would be great if it could all be booked as a package deal. I was pleasantly suprised as to how quiet it was given it was on the main street, which was what we needed after a full day of flights and the drive from Melbourne.

Even though I changed my booking well before the cancelation period I was still charged for 2 rooms. But this was more booking.com as they took the money earlier than they should have. The hotel staff were extremely responsive and helpful in assisting me to get my money back.

Within walking distance to shops, eateries and attractions. Received a lovely warm welcome and nothing was too much trouble. There was an outdoor area by the pool (for the smokers) which was a nice spot to sit with a coffee. The bed was very comfortable.

It was a little tired, but improvements are being done. The lighting in our room was okay, but not quite bright enough for a knitter, like myself. There was a bit of road noise, but to be expected on a main street.

The room was large and clean and well layed out. The location was great. Mick called before we arrived to enquire how far away we were so he could put the heater on for us. I was thankful for the electric blanket. The location was fairly quiet to traffic going by. You could hear it but it wasn't annoying - small town kind of noise.

We were in a room close to the pool and pond. I found the pump going in the pond a bit annoying when going to sleep and there was also a light on the verandah out our room which was also a bit of a pain. The curtains did a pretty good job of blocking nearly all of it. The heater was up pretty high all night - 28o as set by Mick, but it didn't really heat up the room too well. Luckily we had electric blankets, which was great. The skirting in the bathroom could have used a better clean but overall for the price our room and stay was pretty good.

The Managers Taryn and Shaun were very friendly, approachable and accommodating to our needs. The pool was good, and the shower was a very good size. Taryn was also able to provide a bottom level and stand alone shower when 1st booked. The location was within walking distance to shops, restaurants etc. Would consider staying again in the future

Noises from rooms above and wasnt able to find hairdryer till last night.

We stayed for two nights and very much enjoyed our stay. Great location, close to restaurants, etc. The bed was comfortable, and the pool was nice to relax in on the warm days. The staff member Kevin was friendly and made us feel very much welcome. He offered us milk for the room and pool towels when we checked in. In a lot of places, we have to ask for that. Kevin spoke to us throughout our stay, and he went above and beyond to ensure we enjoyed our stay. Thanks heaps.

More lighting in the room would be good. The room was a little dark due to a lack of lighting. Apart from that, everything else was great.

The room was large. Very clean. Excellent beds but the pillows could be a little softer. Water pressure in the shower was excellent. The staff were lovely and friendly.

The parking situation was not the best. If we came back to our room after 9pm we could not access our parking bay. We had a disabled room. So we had to park away from the room. It might be handy to paint room numbers on each parking spot so people know which is theirs.

Close proximity to shops, restaurants/bars and attractions. Also has a nice pool and onsite parking. The room had good space and a nice outdoor area.

Still needs some upgrades with carpet and other features that are a bit tired , the staff explained to me from the start that they were in the process of of rectifying this shortly which wasn’t an issue for my stay anyway.

Everything went well. Although I was late in arriving the staff had messaged me with instructions on where my room was and how to get the key (they even put the lights on for me!). Great location only a few minutes walk from everything you would want - places for breakfast, places for dinner and of course the pub (there are a few of them).

Location to the main area of Echuca. It was so nice to see another colour of towels in the bathroom. (navy blue) It does get boring with all the accommodation places having white linen and white towels, I guess it is because they can be bleached to keep clean.

I like a dark room for sleeping, there was a lot of light coming in around the curtains. I know that's my problem not the accommodations.
