Neat and Clean Overnighter

Neat and Clean overnighter on the highway from Melb to Adel. Ok its not the Taj Mahal and its a bit rough around the edges, but you park at your door, simple yet tidy room, and you can’t ask for more than that. Good value!

Pets are allowed at this property. I didn't take mine but its good to know as there's not much pet friendly accommodation out there. The beds and pillows were comfy. The bathroom is tired and worn out but it is an older motel. The staff were friendly and up for a chat. Continental breakfast is included
