Excellent Family Run Service”
Good Service, Fresh Milk in Fridge (not uht), Really nice comfortable room.
The Red Cedar was friendly and helpful not to mention the comfortable, bright and clean room in their newer section. Breakfast and wake up call was prompt and fresh and coffee nice and hot. Will stay here again when next in Muswellbrook.
A mistake was made when booking through agency resulting in paying for a premium room when I wanted a budget room. The Red Cedar and Agency reversed the payment accordingly and quickly But the Red Cedar could've have refused to do this as it wasn't their fault.
I also sprained my ankle (playing sports) during my 3 days stay in Muswellbrook and they were very helpful, carried my bags gave me extra time all with a friendly smile.

Never again!”
cheap, good if you do not insist on sleeping full night.
the manager was friendly and she smiled.
i now wonder if she smiled because she knew that she was going to put us in room at the end, on the left side of the motel.
the motel is surrounded by living quarters of the mines workers.
they park their huge trucks next to our motel fence, which was less than a meter away from our window.
can you imagine what happen at 4:00am, when you are deep asleep and they start to warm up their huge engines?
and this is not all!!!
mysterious beeping sounds were kept coming from the room next door! we never heard such sounds before, similar to science fiction movie. i was too tired to get out of bed and complain to the manager, there was no telephone in the room. the beeping came for a few seconds and then repeated few minutes later.
i went out of my mind wondering why i did not go to another hotel for an extra $30?
(i can not forgive myself, forgetting to ask the manager, on our departure, what were these beeping sounds)
and this is not all!
the sliding toilet door did not have a lock!
(it is on a sliding bar)
we were very surprised that even when we closed the door, it would slide back to the open position by itself!
since this contradicted the laws of physics, i decided to use my 'scientific background', to solve this mystery
after few minutes, i realized that the whole room was built on a large concrete slab.
but!!!
this slab was tilted,
and we could actually feel by walking from one side of the room to the other, that we are walking up or down.
at last, we had no choice but survive with the toilet door open all the time.
and this is not all!
we heard some scratching sounds coming from the walls, which we assumed that mice are active there. since the bathroom was in a state of disrepair and mold, we found that under the sink something that looked possibly as holes next to the pipes.
room was clean.
tv was ok, very limited stations.
bath towels ok.
the noise from the main highway was not
