Banjo's Overnight & Holiday Units

In Winton, there are few choices. This place is hard to identify because the outside sign is faded. There are only 8 units or so. It is very basic. Things do work but the air conditioning is so loud it will keep you awake. TV is from the first generation of flat screen.

No record of my booking on arrival. Winton is reknowned for its sulphurous water smell but the copious fragrance in the room to cover up bad smells was choking. Bed was uncomfortable with springs poking through, blinds falling down and the window rattler of an air conditioner, ceiling fan and bathroom exhauzt fan all rattled badly. Cobwebs hanging from the ceiling and holes in the flyscreen. Dust on shelving. And yet tbis was the 3rd most expensive stay in ojr 5 weeks of travel. Having travelled in 39 countries this place was a shocker .

This was the only accommodation available in Winton when I booked 2 months ahead! The bed was comfortable and the shower hot. Those are the only positives. The place is very run down and not very clean.

Room was basic, little dated but acceptable. Small computer monitor sized TV.

The room was equiped with everything you needed. Quite clean on the surface - just don’t look too far below the surface. Remember you are in a dusty region so things aren’t like the city. Comfy bed, clean bathroom, It is very busy in the outback at present and can be difficult for places to keep up with the pressure. Could be a great business for someone to buy and ‘smarten up’.

The room was dirty and damaged. Had to scrub the kitchen before we could use it. Dust and cobwebs abound. Pool filthy and not usable. Same with BBQ area. Property is for sale and needs a lot of work to bring it up to standard. If there was anywhere else available we would have moved.

This property has the potential to be a good country town place to stay. Unfortunately it is unkempt with minimal attention to cleanliness. The rules outlined in the Welcome Information could offend without a sufficient sense of humour.The Winton area should not be missed but staying at Banjos should be a last resort.

Old property, decor from the 1980`s, Reception staff, is still set from the 1980`s, Room is adequate, but the furnishing is old, OK for one night, Noisy AC/Heater, just above your bed head in the room, everything in the room needs a good refurbishing, to meet 2021 standards...but Internet is very fast...

Winton accommodation is generally very basic, and this place is no exception. It has space, a workable bathroom and reasonable bed, but felt tired and basic. But most of town feels like that.
