Dusty surfaces. There are some bugs - tiny spiders, ants, moths etc in the room but the motel does provide the room with a can of insect spray in case you need it. We did travel during summer so maybe that's a factor. Recommend to bring wipes for surfaces but as a road tripper, you should have those with you anyway. Checkin process was super easy even though we arrived late the first night.

I had a room @ the front of the motel & it has a beautiful view to the west where you could view the sunset etc. The front garden (which my room open on to) is beautiful with a particularly big tree. The room itself was functional & had all the things you could require.

It was good but we had ants and bugs in our room. The bed was comfy and had a heated blanket. The bathroom was clean the appliances were abit outdated. I suppose it suffice for our purpose of visiting

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Structurally, it was a standard old-style 1960s motel room. It was clean and bright, and it happened to be well-heated ahead of our arrival on a very cold 2 degree night in June, and it was well-sealed, with no draughts. There were electric blankets on both beds in our twin room and spare blankets and pillows in the wardrobe. The beds were good and I slept better there than I had in weeks at home. There were cups, glasses and wine-glasses, and milk in the fridge. It was situated on the far edge of town, on the road to Meeniyan and was therefore very quiet, with little traffic driving past. It had a view over to the rolling hills that are so picturesque around here. The owner, Ian, was very easy to deal with.

Walkable to town centre. Some lovely eateries. The room we stayed in needed a bit of TLC. Our shower screen didn’t work and a tap dripped all night in the sink as we were unable to turn it off. On the plus side when we arrived it was very organised and we were able to access our room early.

While the bed was clean and comfortable, the whole place looks as if it’s stuck in the 70’s. The towels are so threadbare I’d say they’re also from that era. In need of a good updating and general tidy-up, as there was a lot of cobwebs in my room, despite it being full booked last night, would have been worth a go-around and de-cobweb. It’s alright for a 1 night stay if passing through, especially if just one person travelling for work.

Room was comfortable with limited amenities. Furniture adequate but chairs need shampooing. Bathroom power socket was taped with sticky tape which would not be safety compliant. Sufficiently comfortable and clean otherwise.

The room was very basic and is exceptionally outdated; needs a major upgrade. The mattress on the bed wasn’t great and the bedding was very poor quality. The towels were very thin, no pile at all. It’s one redeeming quality was that it was clean
