The property was walking distance to town and the Bowls Club. There was a pool and the price was ok. However, I had no hot water for 2 mornings, there was no conditioner or body wash (so bring your own) and, despite there being 100 channels on the TV, there was no way of watching free to air channels. The channels provided by the hotel was not quality programming, not Foxtel or anything. Despite asking at reception about how to get free to air channels, nobody came to help. The last night I was there, I lost the signal altogether. Bring an Ipad or a good book if you want a night in.

The rooms are old and therefore very high priced. The bed only was 140x190? Very small for a double bed in my opinion. The sofa in the room was full of stains and I would not like to sit on it. Also one chair had a big stain on it and the cups were dirty too. Overall I would not go there again.

Clean and comfortable room, nice fresh aroma as soon as I entered. I was on the upper floor and enjoyed the view from the balcony to the lake. The traffic was not an issue at all. Very nice pool area. Safe off road parking. The property is within walking distance to the CBD, restaurants and the lake.

a seasoned accommodation. Amenities are there with just enough care given. The 'eco friendly' shower had bottles of body wash+shampoo on the wall but empty. There were 4 small tubes of shampoo & bar soap placed next to the basin. A little bit of attention would be nice. For the price and a place to recharge for the night, it was good indeed.

This is an older motel, so if you're particular about the interior and amenities, you may want to reconsider. However, it was quiet at night, making it easy to sleep, and the bed was comfortable. Hot water was available at all times, and they provided everything I needed. The location is great, within walking distance to the shopping center and many restaurants. Overall, we were satisfied with our stay.
