Cute little hotel on the edge of town. Was very surprised based on the price didn’t expect very much. But the room was clean comfortable and very sunny which was lovely in the morning with the sunshine stream in. Easy walk to town, town is not very long. There was one restaurant option in town a Thai and two pub options we went to the Thai. Food was fresh delicious and very inexpensive. Lady at check-in was very friendly and was full of helpful advice. She recommended the Thai and also recommended the two other pubs that one was a little bit more expensive than the other but had heard both had good food. If travelling through Tenterfield, I would recommend staying here great location to the rest of the activities in town and clean and comfortable.

We were welcomed with a warm smile upon check-in, and given a much appreciated run-down of both dining and supermarket facilities within the town. Everything felt easy and our only regret was not having more time to spend at Tenterfield. Room had everything we need and although slightly older, was clean and comfortable. We will be back again!!

Very clean tidy property with nice amenities. However the money is where the mattress is, for motels. And the mattress quality let the overall experience down as they were uncomfortable unfortunately.

Our room was spacious, clean and quiet. Good hot water pressure in the shower. The motel is well located and an easy walk to the town centre. We have stayed here several times and find it the best accomadation in town for the price point.
