Highlander Motor Inn & Apartments

Highlander Motor Inn & Apartments

10/10 Excellent
"We loved our stay here at the Highlander motel. Great streaming services on the TV, very close to the flower festival, restaurants and shops. Staff were extremely kind and helpful as we were travelling with young kids. Free guest laundry service helped us to keep on top of things before we returned home. Love this place, staff are amazing and the unit has a full kitchen which makes making breakfast and dinner easy if you need to. Otherwise they offer a terrific room service too!"
