Quiet place away from the main street and Sturt Highway. Great WiFi, clean, comfortable, good constant hot water, and nice beds. The only drawback is it's a bit of a drive, or a very long walk, up the main street to get food. I've stayed in just about every motel in Hay over the years and I think this is now my go to spot.
