This neat and tidy motel located on the highway provides an ideal stopover for budget travellers. The bed was comfortable, bathroom clean and tidy and microwave was great to have.

A quick overnight stop for us. Aircon worked well bed was clean and comfy. Bathroom needed some attention, tiles lifting in shower. However it was clean. Pub is in walking distance and meals are lovely

Great Place for an Overnight Stay!!!!
Booked online through the Hotels.com app. Check-in on arrival was super easy with a friendly greeting. Room had been renovated, was spacious and clean. Bed was very comfortable. Walking distance to the Bororen Hotel which do great pub food. The only thing I can critique is the noise of passing trucks late at night and early in the morning, but I am a light sleeper unfortunately. My husband didn't hear a thing haha

Manager very friendly and helpful. Needed his help to operate tv (no instructions for satellite channel). Had to leave on bathroom light all night as pitch black without any light... no good for persons over 70 years! (-Maybe, the addition of a low wattage bulb in bathroom would help).

Being school holidays I booked last minute and had to find somewhere for the night. I booked this place never stayed here before drove in and thought ok well it’s a room, but when I opened the door to our room it was sheer delight! We were so impressed to find this little place in a tiny town. Obviously fairly recent Reno but done with taste and class equivalent to the big hotels in big cities. What can I say so impressed and will definitely book here again and highly recommend this motel. Karen was lovely to deal with in the office Thankyou for making a long trip better.

Friendly staff and conveniently located beside the Bruce Hwy approximately 500km north of Brisbane in a small village of Bororen. The motel is clean and the pool is good. The pub nearby is walking distance and makes meals 6 - 8pm which are also good and there is a servo open till 7pm where you can buy milk and other items. I would recommend if your traveling along the Bruce Hwy especially to break up long drives.
