Overall, great value, but they were busy and the Motel parking was full. Accom is OK, but quite dated, but service was great. Meals are excellent! Perfect for overnight stays while working nearby!

Ease of booking, friendly and professional staff at check-in, clean and tidy rooms, and easy check-out. Meals at the property are great! Only downside is traffic noise, but you expect that on a busy road, and I was hesitant to park under the large gum trees, but it was all good :)
