Very comfortable motel with good room facilities ( ie. microwave , air con , cable tv channels , dining table and huge arm chair ! Comfy bed , spacious room , easy parking ). Very clean . Very friendly and accommodating host . Close proximity to supermarket ( Coles ) and eating places . Although on main road , not bothered at all by traffic noise . Only stayed overnight but would be very comfortable for a longer stay for sure . Nothing I could fault about my stay here .

Convenient location to wineries in the Yarra Valley. Bathroom remodel is great. At some point, it would be better if carpets could be replaced with luxury vinyl flooring to eliminate any musty smell.

Very nice room. I had the spa room with king size bed. The sheets were the order of the day as they were silky smooth and the bed was comfortable. I’ll stay again when I’m next out that way.

Recently stayed with my 16 month old and 4 year old in the 1 bedroom family apartment. The apartment was clean and a great size complete with small secure backyard. A few little niggles like the toilet brush was left in the toilet (like it was in the process of being cleaned but forgotten) and the fridge was turned off (it was lucky I noticed just before bed). Complete kitchen but There were no tea towels or oven mitts. Our key was left in a lock box so only interaction with staff was my request for a portacot. These are charged at $25 per night. The cot was delivered to our door assembled which was lovely but I had to dismantled and reassemble to get into the bedroom. Great proximity to shops and our friends so likely we will stay again sometime in the future.

Stayed 2 nights in a Spa suite. Room was spacious. King bed was comfortable. Staff at check in and check out were very pleasant and friendly. The room was clean. The curtains blocked the outside light very effectively. Would definitely stay again.

Typical Australia Motel and serves it purpose. Pub across the road to get a feed or Mcdonalds a short hop down the street. If you are catching up with family and friends in the area and just need a bed then this is the place.

Room was nice overall. Shower head needs to be smaller and better pressure. Also needs a good clean where the water comes out, half of them were blocked. Smaller bed was hard as a rock. Fridge wasn't very cold. Aircon was noisy.

It was a two night stay so we can visit the wineries. Overall at the time of booking the price for the property was over priced. There was some construction happening and at time of checking there reception was closed. Had to call to get someone to cone down. The location is good and not far from the wineries. Macas and KFC is next door to the Motel.
