Great little motel

We have stayed here several times over the years, it's a great little motel in a quiet location off the highway and close to the river. This was our first stay since the new owners took over and we were relieved to find that the motel hasn't really changed in essentials - the whole place still feels fresh and clean and full of vintage character. A warm welcome, generous hospitality and pretty much everything you could need in the well-equipped room - and so nice to see the garden being cared for, too. An excellent place to rest up after a long drive.

Quiet in a good location

Nice location, far enough away from the main street to not suffer from traffic noise. Everything else was fine - good parking spot and internet, plenty of warm water for the shower, nice soaps, effective cooling from the A/C, OK bed and TV. We wandered down to the nearby Murrumbidgee River and walked a couple of hundred yards to the RSL for dinner.
