room was okay, but very dated. It feels like you are paying for two empty rooms as well as your own. Had dinner in the bistro. It was pretty grim. Had better meals at school. tasteless pasta, all vego options had run out, sticky date pudding wasn't cooked properly. Wave Rock was not particularly interesting. More

Stayed for 1 night and really this is the only place to stay. Comfortable clean rooms but very dark - always needed the lights on. Pool clean and tidy. Staff helpful and friendly. Meal in bistro very expensive - $30.00 for steak and then had to cook it yourself on a hot-plate which was not very hot. Range of salads... More

This is fine as long as you do not have high expectations! 70s decor and quite dark. Good hotel bar and indoor barbecue where you cook your own meat bought at the restaurant counter. Not cheap food but the rooms are cheap and they have to make a profit somehow! Has a pool and beds are comfortable. Have a walk... More

We found the motel very clean, the staff were very friendly and helpful and the pool was a great place to relax after a hot and tiring drive. Also loved the idea of the Bush Bistro where you cook your own meat (although the hot plates could have been a bit hotter) as you get to chat to other travellers.... More

On our way to Esperance we wanted to visit Wave Rock. The motel was dark, dingy and very musty. The bed was a king and linen was fresh and white but the bathroom was very smelly. We went to the bistro and the menu was basic grilled steaks which you cooked yourself (at $30 for a steak I expect it... More

This lovely hotel offers absolute fantastic service and food to die for. The food range for coach tours is unbelievable. As a couple on holidays the cook your own steaks and the menu is better than any City Hotel ( even the best pub in Kalgoolie ) at country prices. The open indoor space includes a piano and space for... More

Relaxed outback motel atmosphere. A little bit run down. We booked an executive suite for $195 a night and the room needed maintenance badly - big stains on carpet, bathroom light not working, curtains broken, knob off vanity in bathroom, security chain broken, etc. Probably clean but room maintenance issues made it look dirty. Don't know price or quality of... More
