Older-style motel but very clean and well maintained. Staff were lovely and really pleasant to deal with. Great location — close to local shops and hotels, and only about 15 minutes from the main centre of Bundaberg. The room was comfortable with good air con, fans, and daily cleaning. Bonus points for the pool and great outdoor area, plus undercover parking and everything on ground level for easy access. Very reasonable rates — would definitely stay again!

This is a budget motel that is clean and comfortable, I had a microwave and fridge in my room as well as the standard toaster and kettle. My room was close to the road so a bit noisy but not really a problem. Comfy mattress and pillows. I’d stay here again.
