Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
Old motel, nice quiet A/C, bed, hot water all good. Bit pricey for the moderate level of comfort. Clean and good ventilation as there was a stink of deodorant. Would stay again for a good night sleep, but would negotiate for better deal.

Worst hotel ever
Booked through wotif many times, the place was disgusting, room was filthy, heater nobs missing, door handles missing, only three lounge chairs in a family room for four ppl and the weekend manager said in his opinion it's less than a three star rating... had to leave our key on doorstep as we left as specified on a note at the front locked reception door... pathetic

Sarah, Melbourne

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Room comfort
The staff was friendly, polite. The beds were on wheels... on a smooth, flat surface. We rolled ALL OVER THE ROOM. The joke wore thin pretty quickly. My daughter fell off her bed a few times. The beds were so slippery they were near impossible to sleep on. There was also only one blanket between two sheets - not suitable for this area in winter. We were cold. The WiFi password didn’t work for the internet. No value for money.

Spacious rooms with a quiet country outlook.
The rooms at the front with the lovely views out to the Victorian countryside are the pick. It seems previous issues regarding hot water (which I noticed mentioned on older reviews) have been sorted. The room we stayed in had been recently renovated judging by the modern decor and floating floor.
