“Stayed 3 nights and this is still a great option to stay in Thredbo.”
Not too far from the parking (public parking) despite hotel or booking.com advertising included in the room reservation. Microwave broke down and the replacement was almost instant so the staff are great. Good continental breakfast included.

“disappointing”
Breakfast was very poor. Caned fruit, bread very dry (definitely not fresh), only boiled eggs which barely can be eaten with the dry bread.

Good quiet location and good value for money compared to anything else in Thredbo, especially when all you care about is some sleep and a morning shower. Breakfast was very basic but fills you for the day. Bonus points for a decent ground coffee machine.
