Stayed there three nights. Had originally planned on two, but found the motel so accommodating and the area so full of things to do that we spent another day there on our "tourist pace" trip between Melbourne and Sydney.

Our group of 30 senior travellers stayed one night on our way to Victoria, and although outdated, this motel is recommended for the budget traveller. We were warmly welcomed by the lovely young couple who took over the motel in november 2011. About the only real complaint is the lack of proper window coverage, with the curtains being too short...

We stayed at this motel for 1 night on our way back to Sydney from Melbourne. As we were there at 7.00pm, we didn't get the chance to use the pool, games room and experience the hospitality of those nice staff as mentioned by other travellers. The lady who checked me in seems like she is in the hurry to... More

We stayed in the spa room, the room has a kitchen area and one bedroom and a quite large bathroom. The rooms décor is very outdated and also needs a paint. The couch looked very dirty and I did not wish to sit on it. The rest of the room was quite clean. The bedroom had a electrical wire hanging... More
