We stayed in a economy room. It was very old small and not that clean. Sadly the complex looks uncared for and in need of a lot of TLC. Bed was just ok. Shower drips all the time. Pool was closed, which was a shame. Near the town centre.

I must admit I thought 'shock, horror' when we truned into this motel in a little side street.....BUT....the lady host was more than pleasant and helpful and our room turned out to be very spacious, clean and comfortable and for the price excellent for overnight. Some TLC spent on updating would make a huge difference particularly on the outside for... More

This is an old motel on a faboulous motel and the price is right when you want to avoid the very cold nights in Mount Gambia. It looks far better online than it is in reality. Probably a three star in it's hay day but in need of a serious make over.

I stayed in the deluxe room which was great value for money $85 a night for a single person. Really comfy queen bed, spacious room and the owners were quiet helpful with their knowledge of local attractions. Motel room was slightly dated but overall was clean and close to the city centre.
