Poor hotel
Gym was in poor condition. The room stank of cigarettes. Staff ambivalent.

6/10 Good

Disappointed
This hotel could use an upgrade! We have stayed here a few years ago and were quite happy, but this time around, we were disappointed. The bathroom is small for a family of 4 (room with 1 Queen bed and 1 sofabed) - and the fan was not working very well. After we all had showers, a lot of tiny black bugs came out from under the bathroom sink. The cleanliness of the room itself was poor, lots of spiderwebs (and one rather large spider). Kids said the sofa bed was not very comfortable. We could also hear very well the people in the room next door. Buffet breakfast was underwhelming as well and not much options for younger kids. We stayed at Port Macquarie Rydges a few weeks ago, and cannot believe the Armidale hotel is still part of the Rydges chain. Only redeeming features were price, free parking and location.

Stay away from this place
Thanks god we only stayed here for one night with my husband and two young adult children.There was nothing like it was advertised on the website.The whole apartment was run down and stank of smoke.Walls were dirty so do the windows and frames.The curtains were mouldy.We found a used bedding under the sofa.Our sheets were covered with stain spots.On top of it we were informed to collect snd discard all rubbish bags in the main container and wash the glasses and plates otherwise we will be charged for it.Nevertheless the fridge was filled with booze for purchase.This is a joke not a hotel.

Not the Rydhes you expect
This place is a Motel not a Hotel which is a little misleading. It was great they offered 2 bedroom accomodation but the room and furniture was very dated and not what I would expect from a rydhes. The main TV had recently been installed but had a dodgy cable causing it to not work, they did try to fix this for us but really couldn't do much. The shower was something else! Calcium dripping off the rain shower, pipes so hot you could burn yourself (would be worried if kids stayed there in the 'family' unit). Most fixtures either grimy, broken or missing really. We managed but glad we were only there one night and quite disappointed with the price, for this quality I would expect a lower price, more in line with dated motels.
