Claire was a friendly and accommodating host. The tiny house felt far less tiny due to the floor to ceiling windows which looked out onto plenty of trees and the occasional chicken. A great place to unwind after a long hike!

The room was large, comfortable, fresh and quiet to say we were on the roadside. Graham was very friendly and helpful to guide us to where to visit in town. Big TV, everything else you need. Thanks so much would definitely recommend the place to anyone who is visiting Ararat.

I was greeted by the owner who was friendly and willing to give me some clues on where to go for a meal. The room offered all I needed, in fact I was pleasantly surprised when I first opened the door.

Highly recommended accommodation. Everything is clean. Very impressed on how the sheets were in plastic packaging when we arrived and got to be the ones to unpack them. The mattresses were up to standard and all of us had a good sleep. Stayed in NRMA Halls Gap for 3 nights and never did we get an episode of body aches after sleeping. Fridge is very clean and bathroom was well-kept. Looking forward to having another holiday in the same venue. :)

This is our third stay here. We love that we can sit outside and watch all the wildlife go by. Motel is centrally located, very close to shops and restaurants.

Although surrounded by additional units under construction, our spacious, recently renovated room (with a gleaming, new bathroom) was perfect for a quiet night's rest on our long journey home. Moreover, the motel is very conveniently located close to fast food outlets.
