The motel room was clean and tidy and comfortable. The cabin was a work in progress. The main bed has slats as base and collapsed and needs maintenance. The bathroom and kitchen are relatively new and very clean. The other bedrooms are cluttered and not comfortable. The tv needs attention, behind the couches are stored pieces of timber.

Clean. Spacious room for small family of 3 with a good layout. Enjoyed the peaceful property as other guests were peaceful as per the guest rules. Comfortable beds. Good pressure in shower. Good heating. Liked the powerboard. Good sized rectangular dining table for 3-4 people. Liked the free wi-fi. Convenient access to hightway. Not too noisy from the highway. Less than 10 minutes drive from Ballarat town centre. 24 hour check in. Keyless, pin code room entry. Helpful friendly service. Accessible rubbish and recycling bins on property. Good price for family on a budget. Recommend to others. We would stay again.
