We had misgivings when we arrived to find a bevy of tradies in their work utes also staying at the motel in units right alongside us as we were hoping for a good night's sleep after a big day of driving. However, the tradies were excellent (gentlemen all) and we found them to be super considerate. We never heard a peep from them. And the reason they were there? They told us the restaurant onsite does really good meals and the rooms represent really good value. It's an older style motel - think the 70's - with smaller rooms and older furnishings. But we couldn't fault the quietness, the comfort of the bed, or the effectiveness of the blockout curtains over the generous windows. The best night's sleep during the whole trip. A blissful 10 1/2 hours!

Motel was pretty central to everything & pet friendly. There's a big park close by where I took the dog. Beds were comfortable, bathroom was clean and AC was good. The shopping centre was less than 10 minutes away and Woolies was 2-3 minutes away. The place was clean and staff friendly. Happy to recommend this place.

There's no parking spot directly in front of my unit so had to park in front of other units. Other than this, no complaints at all!

Location is VERY central, loads of food options nearby and they have their own restaurant, however their prices are a little steep. The bed is very comfortable and I had 2 good nights sleep in it, warm and cozy and the mattress firm but not too firm

The only thing I didn’t like was that the man in the room next door was having a long argument with his partner. Other than that, it’s a great venue, if a little dated. If they were to renovate the place, it would be a lot more aesthetically pleasing, but it would cost more too….

A great budget motel that was clean & well presented with good in-room facilities. Fabulous towels, great hot water shower & pressure & hair dryer. The on-site restaurant was warm & inviting the food was tasty. The staff were friendly. Easy check-in

Other guests were smoking in close proximity to my room.

Easy check in, clean, quiet, comfy, if basic room.

Some sort of shear/privacy curtain or blinds would be nice so you can open the curtains but still have some privacy from people walking past the windows.

It had several items in the room that were useful and had been missing in other motels. The food in the restaurant was also healthy and tasty. This has been the best motel this trip across Australia

The restaurant food was really good and with room service. The wine list was very average though. The staff were friendly and I was able to have my dog stay in the room!

The bed linen was old, ugly and worn.

The interconnecting room was very convenient for our family. Rooms were clean and beds were comfy. Close to everything we needed.

No room to park the car in front of the 1st rooms but plenty of other parking
