This property was very clean which was excellent and the staff were very good, however the decore was very dated and we had burn holes in the bed cover that was covered up by the towels on the bed initially. However, the old saying “you get what you pay for” rings true as we got the unit at a good rate as it was a last minute decision to go to Lakes Entrance. We will try somewhere else next time we go to Lakes Entrance.

The place was easy and quiet. Which is what I wanted for a quick overnight stay. The receptionist wasn't overly welcoming. But that I can manage. Going out for breakfast the next morning and coming back to find my door open and linens on the outside, not so much. I asked the receptionist what was going on. She advised me that since my car was gone they assumed I had to. Even with the motel key still in my hand.. Not the best experience.

Enormous King+ bed plus a single. Parking at the door. Nice little outdoor area with river/lake view + table and chairs. Only negative is the exhaust fan in the bathroom sounds scarily past its use by date.

Great property in a prime location; walk out the door and you are in a very pretty part of Lakes. Sleep quality was good. Staff were highly accommodating and friendly. The place was immaculate in the rooms and the exterior. Only downside was the furniture needs updating; this is minor. But excellent overall. I feel like this property has got a keen eye on making guests feel comfortable. Would stay again.
