We stayed twice. Dates 4th to the 6th January then 15th to 17th January due to a major scouting event happening in Maryborough. The first room 31 we stayed at had 2 air conditioners in 2 rooms. Kept the rooms cool at all times. It was great with lots of room to move around. Very comfortable. The second room 22 was meant to be an upgrade. It was in the sense of the loft but not great to stay cool. There was 1 little air conditioner to cool a large space that was not working. The other much much older air conditioner did not work at all. We sweat through a 38 degree day with what seemed no air conditioning. This needs to be fixed if the price is different due to the loft. The other, was having to fight over a car space due to the room location. It all worked out though. Apart from this, everything else was great. Breakfast was brought to our room with a smile and great service.

Bad wifi, crap parking and the room we were in looked like an old community hall building not the main part of the motel. The room had limited power points and half of the electric equipment was not plugged in due to this. Getting to parking around the narrow driveways provided you will run the risk of damaging your vehicle as visible marks along fences and walls and turning your vehicle there is no room for error.will not stay there again.

It’s a normal motel. Room was large and clean. Had an old microwave and crockery which was nice. The rooms out the back are fine, but not renovated. I had issues connecting to the wifi. Managers tried their best to have it fixed but it didn’t work my whole stay. Pool is pretty average. Expensive breakfast available on site. The best thing about this place is the excellent customer service. The owner/managers went above and beyond and I felt very welcomed.
