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.

Great sized family room. Even though it is on the highway, we couldn't hear the noise of trucks and cars. Parking was a little difficult to get in and our as the room next to us had a trailer connected to their car so were sticking out and a car parked opposite, made it tricky for me to get my car out.

Got a noise complaint at 6pm! For unloading the car too loud! If the proprietor wants to run the place as a trucker’s dormitory, great, but don’t advertise the property as a Motel and take bookings from the public. There are plenty of options in Murray Bridge 15 minutes away.
