I liked the convenience of the motel as it was just off the highway. The restaurant was there and walking distance to other food outlets. I would definitely stay there again.
Clean, quiet, comfortable, dining on site. Pool available if you wanted. Used as a stop over on the way from Melbourne to goldcoast. Would stop there again .
The motel has been recently refurbished - the beds and fittings are brand new and they're great.
Terrific value for money, and the managers are super friendly and helpful.
Rooms need to check after cleaning be done saying rooms ready my bin in the bathroom was so full and the rooms would good if that had bowls spoons and bread plate and butter knife over all room was great and clean. But it looks like that have people living there full time and we're noisey

The jolly swagman was a real delight to stay at, pool area, tennis and spa were all used in our 24 hours there. Situated just other end of Main Street, easy access to all food. Clean and tidy rooms.
A one night stop over. Very nicely set out room with plenty of space and a comfortable bed. The bathroom was spacious and plenty of room to mkve in the shower. Partially undercover parking and plenty of turning room. Only negative, you need to drive into town for food if you font want KFC which is walking distance.
Friendly staff, on-site Restaurant and mostly workers as other guests who were quiet and left early in the morning, so a sleep-in was easy. Plenty of toiletries made available for a single night stay! Spa Bath not working was a let-down, but not advertised as anything other than a private bathroom, so was our fault for getting our hopes up when we saw it. Otherwise it was a nice stay.
Shoe Box Accommodation for 1 person. No room for luggage easy access unless placed on bed. Cramped kitchen/bedroom option, yet very spacious toilet/bathroom.
I would look elsewhere or ask for a bigger room.
