A rest on a big road working trip

Just an overnight stay but I found it to be very comfortable and the service was really good. The room was clean and the bed was very comfy. I was working long hours and it was the perfect place to rest as it was very quiet.

Could have been longer - I wish!

Staying at the Barrier Reef Motel while visiting Innisfail for a sporting event was a great decision. Check-in staff were welcoming and courteous, the room was very quiet, comfortable, spacious and clean. Dined in - and was very impressed with the meal, the service and the friendly casual atmosphere. Wished I didn’t need to check out at 6am! Would have thoroughly enjoyed a few more hours and a swim.
