The welcome was refreshing and kind, local knowledge helped find a nice place to eat in town. Room and facilities very clean and well appointed. Would recommend it for a nice clean room to relax and revive between places
The hosts were most flexible and accommodating as we had to alter our dates several times due to illness.
Our rooms were clean and comfortable. We would recommend this hotel highly to all.
Ideal distance between Adelaide and Melbourne, with very friendly efficient staff and most comfortable facilities.
Will return here with pleasure👍👍👍

The property doesn’t look like it has had any remodeling one since it was built and it wasn’t built yesterday. Very ordinary, and it is situated between the highway and the railway line. the highway is busy at night with trucks. the cook was off sick and the owner (breakfast cook) was on holidays. Understandably is was cheap, and booked up for 3 weeks. Not what i would call the cleanest establishment either. The staff were friendly.
Basic Motel, perfect for one or two night stay, clean with friendly staff, unfortunately the Restaurant was closed due to staff shortages, so had to head out for Takeaway for Dinner
