Colliery Inn Wallsend NSW — Restaurant in Newcastle-Maitland

THIS PLACE IS HEAVILY INFECTED WITH COCKROACHES!!! STAY AWAY||||had the absolute worst experience at this hotel yesterday||||when i checked into the hotel and came back from my (very poorly maintained) shower, there was a cockroach walking on the floor, as i was tired from my day and it was already around 9pm, i didnt really mind and went down to the pub to let the owner know, he didnt seem suprised at all and gave me a as good as empty can of bug spray, this was already a huge red flag but i didnt think much of it, killed the cockroach and threw it out (myself, owner didnt bother), and then went to sleep.||Fast forward to about 3am, i wake up because i had to go to the toilet, i turned on the light and there where about 8(!) cockroaches walking all across the floor of the room, i went down to the pub but there was no one there, also no emergency number or anything.||i tried to find some people to ask if anyone had the same problem, could only find junkies on the balcony/the hallway, did not feel safe and left the hotel (at 4am) had to get a cab to another way more expensive hotel because of this, owner wont respond to my issues so im doing it like this. (booked for 3 nights)||||once again||||DO NOT GO HERE IF U VALUE YOUR HEALTH/WELLBEING!!!||||attatched some pictures of said roaches, see for yourself.||||totally unacceptable, never had this bad of a experience in...

Me and my partner stayed last night in the rooms, we were in a room that had a shared balcony with 3 other rooms, which was no issue as we are not smokers, what was an issue is the door leading out to the balcony is half see through glass and did not have a curtain or anything to provide privacy so had to hang a towel up, there was only a shared bathroom so i chose to shower with my partner in the mens shower, as i thought it would be more appropriate for a female to be with there partner in a mens bathroom then females seeing a male in there bathroom, as I felt uncomfortable showering alone as I witnessed a older man walking the hallway in his underwear. The television in the room had no remote, when I called for one to be brought up we were given a different brand TV remote which did not work, so there for we had no TV to watch.. also the fridge in the shared kitchen was very un clean, the kitchen was the same, there was no mugs, small milks, cutlery provided, microwave was disgusting, and the fridge kept getting unplugged, I also found the girl behind the bar to be very rude and have a negative attitude about anything that I brought to her attention, even getting booked in she was quiet rude, me and my partner will not be stating...

We went for a celebration dinner and we were a bit shocked when hastily approached by a waitress speaking rudely to my son about not being able to change the chicken burger by leaving things off, he was ok with that but the same waitress was then rude again after she asked if we were happy with the food, hubby wasn’t overly impressed with his meal but didn’t complain and my son gave feedback saying the chilli sauce was too overpowering he couldn’t taste the chicken to which she seemed intent on arguing the point 🤦‍♀️ Seriously if you don’t want to hear constructive feedback, then don’t ask and maybe take a quick toke out the back before dealing with customers. The female publican interacted with our table but her ‘conversation’ was clearly forced. The ambiance was initially good but was ruined by the end of our evening from the attitude of the staff member. There is definitely some egos amongst the staff, it’s not hard to be genuinely nice when dealing with...
