Property, although very old, was surprisingly great. Room was relatively small but all facilities worked perfectly. King bed was very comfortable, big TV (only with local channels) was good and easy to operate. Hot water was almost instantenous in the shower with good pressure. Enough room for a couple of nights stay at a property of good value close to both performing arts theatres in Bendigo and city restaurants. :-)

The room was small and cramped. The shower was small and had a large step up to get into it and no shower curtain which made the floor wet and slippery. I was not informed that the room was upstairs which is a problem for my daughter after operation. Owner never offered to change to downstairs room. Said they were full but I question that from what I saw. Dishes were dusty and no dishwashing liquid was provided. Only one toilet roll for two people for three days.

What a complete rip off. A group of colleagues and I stayed at the Oval whilst we attended the Australian Sheep and Wool show. Being that there was such a large event on in town the owner has decided charging $400+ per night per room was acceptable. What we got for this exorbitant price was a worn out, dirty, uncomfortable hotel that for the 4 days we stayed DID NOT SERVICE OUR ROOMS! $400+ PER NIGHT NO SERVICE. This hotel is 1 star, do not stay here!!

Positives: The room has kettle, cutlery, plates and bowls etc, mugs, glasses, mini fridge and microwave. No stove or pots/pans. Also has a TV and reverse cycle air con. Lots of brochures for local dining. Beds were comfortable with plenty of bedding. The room decor is colourful and simple. Price point was very good! Negative: The room was NOT clean. So much dust etc behind the side tables and beds, we were sneezing and all feel congested. The towels were larger in size, but are very well worn. Parking was convenient (right outside or room), but they have a parking space for one of the rooms (28) that almost completely blocks the entry and exit to the parking lot. It was very hard to get the temperature right for the shower, when you adjust it so that it's not burning hot, there is no water pressure. The water in the bathroom sink either comes out full burst, splashing everywhere, or not at all and will go between spurting out the water then shutting off. There is a LOT of traffic noise at night with trucks etc going by.
