Hoteller med parkering i Bermagui

"We messaged the hotel in advance about our late arrival, and they assured us it wouldn’t be a problem—just ring the bell at reception. When we arrived, there was no need to ring; we were met by a woman and an elderly man, presumably the owners. The hotel had already charged us before check-in, but for some reason, they insisted on seeing the same card again. They wanted to charge an extra $1 without explaining why. When the payment failed for some reason, the old man literally tossed the card back at us, muttering something in his thick, unintelligible Aussie accent. The woman tried to smooth things over, asked for a different card (which worked fine), and even asked if we wanted dinner. But the guy had already ruined the vibe; we immediately went into ”defensive mode” rather than ”vacation mode.” The room was nothing special—forgettable and plain. We disliked it more than we liked it. To make matters worse, it was the most expensive stay on our entire road trip from Cairns to Melbourne. Interestingly, the know.travel description for this place hinted at the ”unique” service style of the owners—now I see exactly what they were warning about. They’re clearly capitalizing on the lack of competition in the area. In the morning, we discovered a shared kitchen in pretty sad condition, which no one even bothered to mention when we checked in."

"Super huge room!! Well equipped kitchen but would be great if there’s a mini oven! Bought some food from the supermarket but needed an oven :( love how they have a coffee machine too. Very clean and lovely place. Would be great to shelf out some space for a tub ;)"
