Last minute decision to stay in Mt.Gambier instead of driving on down the road a bit further, but there was something on in town and not many Hotels left too choose from. Nice big rooms though, parking was a bit tight. Would stay again :)

For the price the place was pretty average to be honest. The room was dated and articial flowers on the table and weird bedside lamps made the room look very basic. There were also some maintenance issues in the room that needed fixing. We paid the same price for a lovely room in Hahndorf. I would not recommend this motel.
