      Beware ! I booked this hotel they confirmed the booking and then a month later they emailed me trying to change the price..
      they emailed saying unless I agreed to the new price they would cancel my booking.
      I queried this with the booking provider, and although I didn’t think it was right would have agreed that everyone makes mistakes.
      A month later again I get an email saying they needed to cancel the booking as they were overbooked !
      Very poor , no integrity. Couldn’t even tell the truth and confirm if I would pay the increase !
      I don’t usually complain or post reviews but this is just wrong . Beware they may change the price in you or cancel your booking !

      Near new motel with good size rooms, modern facilities & in the middle of everything. Very friendly owner who is knowledgeable about the area. Great place to stay. Motel is being expanded to double the size.

      Room tip: All rooms are good.

      Well this place was a surprise , Ye we grabbed what room we could for our weekend of the 17th of June 2022 as it was packed but we thought oh dear what have we done . But the staff were fantastic, had some difficulty with english but crikey they looked after us. The restaurant was the best ever and such large servings and it licenced. We celebrated a late fathers day weekend and went to the air museum the next day all within short driving distance. I have only the highest praise for this place and I will stay there again. Good on you Colonial you made my weekend xxxxx

      Room tip: It's not far from the main rail line but honestly we did not hear anything.Had the best sleep ever.

      This was a very average country motel with little updates since seemingly the 1980s. It is an acceptable place to stay. There is a Thai restaurant on site with meals in quality varying from not fit for consumption to quite nice. The cost of the motel is not commensurate with its average quality at $159 a night.

      The rooms are fine - clean and comfortable. The bathroom was clean and plenty of hot water for the shower - getting into the shower was tricky because the shower door opened against the toilet, leaving a narrow aperture. Lots of towels. Doors open directly onto the carpark, so in cold, wet weather it could be dire. But there is an air con which keeps rooms warm. Staff are friendly, helpful and accommodating. Breakfast is huge! The rooms are expensive for what you get, however.

      Room tip: Rooms in the main section seem more modern than rooms towards the back
