Everything about the place. The exceptional cleanliness of the room, bathroom and kitchen. The cutlery, glasses, etc, was clean and in excellent condition. The bedding was comfortable and very clean. The site was so quiet and tidy all around. Gardens well kept. The saltwater pool was a real welcome after a trip up on my motorbike. I was able to park right outside the room. The landlady was very friendly and attentive. The town site was a short walk away to cafes and shops. I wandered around the township a bit to check out some of its history. Certainly a lovely spot for an overnighter or a few days chilling out.

Nothing that comes to mind.

The couple who run the motel were marvellous! Sorry it’s taken so long for me to do the review! They were helpful from the get go, showed us our room which was much larger than expected. Had everything you need to stay comfortably for many days so was a pity we were only there for the 1. Bathroom was modern and clean. Bed was comfy and large. Plenty of room for 2 people. We had Thai from in town and it is the best Thai food I have ever eaten! Was a very enjoyable experience all up.

The internet was quite slow but to be honest we found that in every surrounding town. Not their fault at all

I loved it had a swimming pool & they even supplied towels for the pool bonus as we were there in summer and was hot , had a comfortable 2 seater to be able to watch TV when needed & enjoy a wine also & we could walk to Anna’s restaurant which was beside our Motel. This Motel thought of everything for our stay.

I prefer handheld showers not fixed to the wall.

Enjoyed our little staycation very much. Our room was impeccably clean, every need was catered for right down to the cheese knife and nibbles platters! A short stroll into a very friendly town via pretty riverside parklands was as enjoyable as a dip in the swimming pool and the delicious dinner at the nearby pub. Window shopping during the day and a drive to the nearby national parks made for a relaxing short stay.

Everything was fine. Dont hesitate to book here.

Spacious, clean rooms. Well equipped with a kitchenette, plenty of bench space and storage options. Despite being an older place, it has been well maintained, has comfy beds and is quiet with both sheer and blackout curtains and is very close to the centre of town. Only walking distance to the park which was great for an evening or morning walk. We really loved our stay (5 of us in 3 rooms), and the staff were lovely and happy to recommend things happening in the area. Absolutely would stay again!

Nothing to report :)

Kate, the manager (owner?), kindly offered flexibility when I needed to change my booking date and was keen to ensure that all necessities were supplied for a comfortable overnight stay. She also keeps the rooms and surroundings in immaculate condition - my room was spotless! Unlike some motels, this location offered sufficient driving/parking space so negotiating a way around other guests' vehicles wasn't a problem.

The price per night is slightly higher than other motels that are in slightly closer walking distance to the centre of town (a distance of little less than 1km vs a distance of 500m or less so probably not a big deal for most people). But this location does offer a pool, which would likely be worth the $20 or so extra per night if staying for a longer period in hot weather. I didn't consider this a significant 'dislike', just something to be aware of.

The self contained facility of the room was excellent. This allowed me to prepare my own breakfast and lunch, and made a takeaway dinner much more comfortable. The washing up supplies were excellent. the room had a separate couch which was nice to sit on after a long day on my feet. The bed was super comfy, I slept like a log.

The supply of not individually sealed tea bags and the container of cosmetic wipes in the bathroom - while i appreciate the good intent, and this kept with the overall homely atmosphere of the accommodation, in the current post covid environment I was surprised to see these items supplied this way. I always carry my own due to personal preferences, so did not impact me in a negative way.

A great stay and we will be back on our next trip. Communication was great when we had to change our arrival times and staff very considerate with the ac on and room cool awaiting our late arrival after a long drive on a hot evening. The cleanliness of the room was noticeable as soon as you walk in. One of the cleanest rooms we have stayed. In addition the refreshing pool and friendly staff made it a perfect stay for us.

The check in was simple & easy with the very friendly staff. The room is perfectly clean with a small kitchenette. There's also an undercover 'garage" directly in front of the door, making moving bags in & out the room so much easy. It's next to the main road, but it's perfectly quiet. Location wise, though not in the town centre, I actually prefer to be away from the town centre as it is more quiet.

No time to take a dip in the salted pool.

Beds were very comfortable. Great with a small kitchenette (sink and microwave) with extras such as cheese platter, coffee plunger and coffee sachets, wine cooler. Would have been greater with ice trays in the small freezer in the fridge. Very friendly staff. Pool a bonus Walking distance to Essen restaurant. Best in the area

All good
