State Mine Gully Vacation Packages

Positives: *Contactless property; the owner Mark was very nice & respectfully answered my questions via text regarding parking. *Check-in process very well-organised w/ clear instructions for key access/code etc. *Electric block-out blind helped w/ privacy, noise & light in the mornings. *Bathroom sink & vanity: Somewhat clean w/ good bench space. Negatives: *Really unfortunate to report the negative aspects of this property as Mark was so polite & helpful (as per above). *Generally, a very uncomfortable stay. *Guest house hasn’t been well-maintained; old house needs attending to. *When it rained, the front porch almost flooded w/ rain coming down the gutters. *Needs to be routinely fumigated & then surface-sprayed frequently. Had to deal w/ two cockroaches during my 2-day stay! *Only two parking spots on the property & street parking not timed ONLY during the weekend. *Smell upon arrival & during my stay was a mix of mould, air freshener & chlorine. *Room was nothing like the photo on Expedia. It hadn’t been cleaned / vacuumed at all well so I had to place my luggage on the bed & slept on one side of the mattress. *Mattress was old & so soft, felt like quick sand; it was really difficult to actually get out of it, nearly strained my wrist extensor / flexor muscles! During sleep,felt like I was sinking! *Furniture very old, second hand & dirty & not at all functional or computer-user friendly. *The fridge appeared clean on the outside but was mouldy on the inside.

Great appartment with brilliant amenities. Would highly recommended this as a place to stay.

It’s not what I expected, I saw this hotel from a YouTube blogger, I think that blogger has no taste , when it comes to accommodation, I’m not sure if he was compensated to promote this hotel , it’s not good.

This was a 2 night stay. A last minute trip to go to shows at The Enmore & at the Opera House. Reasonably easy to access from Central Station, but I'd recommend the walk from Erskineville station. ( Google maps took me to Newtown Station which was a more complex route) The staff are all welcoming and friendly. Easy check in at the bar, & you receive a drinks voucher for either the Erko bar or Fleetwood Macchiato across the road 😘 It's a hotel: there are steps to the accommodation area The room was clean and comfortable. There are multiple bathrooms, so always a toilet or shower free when needed. There's also a kitchen, so boomers like me can make their porridge and earl grey first thing. I stayed during the early stages of the soccer World Cup, so the bar was super busy in the evening. It's a dog friendly venue. All the rooms are named after local doggy identities. Just be aware not to tread on anyone's tail after lunch. A short walk to the Enmore for shows. Very close to King Street for all the shopping and transport offerings there. Erskineville train station is a few hundred metres away & Newtown train station is an easy walk too. This was a really fun stay.
