The Rocky Gardens is a standard county motel run by warm and friendly management and staff. Very down to earth people who make a big effort to make you feel welcome and take pride in the service they provide. Rooms are very dated and run-down but generally pretty clean. The sheets were the biggest let down for me as they... More

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Rocky Gardens for a conference. I stayed for two nights in a twin bedded room. From the moment I arrived the owners, managers and staff made it a great stay. I stayed in one of the rooms up at the back. It had recently been painted and was clean from top to... More

Managers are doing the job of maintaining the motel (clean rooms, maintenance, etc) but it is not apparent that they are managing the property (unruly guests, OH&S issues, etc). There is a lot of roadwork going on at the moment and it appears that there are a lot of road workers being accommodated in motels. How times change! Young male... More

Read the reviews and decided to go this place a go. Excellent motel and easy to find on the highway south. Friendly staff and great room. Food was excellent and not too expensive. Will stay here again.

Slightly more expensive than the base model of motor inn. But is worth the little extra cost. Very comfortable stay and pleasant atmosphere to the place. Service at reception was polite and very helpful. Is in an easy location to find and a small shopping centre nearby, I found it ideal for a stop over on a long drive south... More
