Excellent clean comfy motel
I recommend this motel highly; friendly welcome at check in, perfectly clean room with good carpet, comfortable bed, new style bathroom (large) and kitchenette. Terrific swimming pool that my son LOVED. Just a few minutes drive from central Bendigo.

Polite but not friendly - ok I guess...
This place is ok I guess. There are probably friendlier motels in Bendigo for the same price, but it was clean and tidy. My son and I stayed there when our house was sprayed for bugs, but because we were local they made us pay a bond! They don’t trust the locals that’s for sure lol

Horrible place to stay! The bathroom was falling apart, the tap in the shower fell completely off the wall, leaving a hole and also some very hot water running until we could work out a way to change it! The fan barely did anything. The logo off the tap in the hand sink flew off as soon as we washed our hands, and couldn’t work out how to use the heater only air con! Most uncomfortable beds our backs were so sore the next day! Will never stay again and would not recommended. Even for a cheap night away, not worth it
