We had been travelling & stayed at various Motels in 3 different states. This was by far the nicest Motel, with the best layout, kitchenette with extra tap & sink. Bigger fridge, with chocolates & chips, & alcohol available to purchase. We take lots of photos on our holidays, so need to load them each day, & the bench space was more than adequate.

It was a great motel, found the room to be very clean, bright, comfy and quite large in comparison to many we have stayed at. Was in a great location for shopping and the information centre across the road had a great park to relax under trees and take the kids to play.
