Helpful staff who returned an item we had left in our room even before we headed off in our car. Then searched our room for a medical item we thought we had left and they rang to report it was not there. Luckily we found it between phone calls. Great service.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property was very neat in the outdoor area and parking area. Inside, the room was immaculate, roomy, quiet and had tea and coffee making facilities, microwave and bathroom supplies. The curtains were excellent for creating a dark room and there is an easily followed procedure to get your key if you are a late arrival. The text instructions were perfect. Although it is on the main thoroughfare from Adelaide to Melbourne, the noise of the trucks was not an issue. I will definitely return en route to NSW and Vic.
