For an overnight stay when driving from Gold Coast to Bathurst this place was great value for money. Nothing fancy but had all that was required. Will stay again under similar circumstances.

Fridge stopped working and the staff were so helpful and understanding that we had items that needed to stay cold, so they let us put our items in the fridge at the bar until the next morning. So that the fridge could be replaced.

Location is very central. Close drive to shopping, beaches and popular neighboring suburbs. Room is a bit of a tight squeeze for 3 people but was generally clean and provided a toaster and kettle and a bar fridge. This was all located inside a wardrobe so access was an issue with the small room but it was perfect for a short stay of a few days on a low budget. There was some noise in the water pipes occasionally when Neighbour's used their water but other than that it is was very good option for those on a low budget. I've stayed in worse for a higher price. Pub offered some basic meals for lunch and dinner (pizza / chips or burgers) at a good price. OK for a quick dinner if you're not wanting to go out and eat. Room was serviced everyday which was a nice surprise. Overall it was value for money and the beds are comfy and the aircon worked well.

For a budget motel it was excellent. Clean, tidy, amenities good, comfortable bed, easy parking, friendly and efficient staff. The only downside is that it is not close to highway access, but for all other guests, would highly recommend

For the price I paid for a night it was great. Can’t find too many places for under $80 where you have your own bathroom. Loved that there was aircon and could watch my Netflix on the tv. Room was clean, not too much noise, good water pressure in the shower, working fridge and enough storage space. Sadly there was only a bar menu at the Pub, and as vegans there wasn’t anything we could eat on there. Staff was really friendly and helpful. Apart from the food the only other thing was that I specifically wanted to do some laundry as er had just come in from a festival, and there was only one old dryer that took a very long time to dry things. Also, another person staying at the motel took my clothes out while they were still wet, so I pretty much had to run back and forth to the machine to ensure my clothes were still in it, this took up most of the arvo, night and morning as it was so slow drying.
