Clean and honestly from the outside looks like your average 80s motel but it is probably one of the nicest motels in country vic. Clean, tidy, friendly staff, ticks all the boxes. We will be back.

The noisy neighbours and the other dog owners who don't stop their dogs barking are a drawback unfortunately. Not the fault of the proprietor.
