It was a great motel, found the room to be very clean, bright, comfy and quite large in comparison to many we have stayed at. Was in a great location for shopping and the information centre across the road had a great park to relax under trees and take the kids to play.

Spacious and comfortable room with a queen bed. I’d prefer a king for that extra space, but for one night it was fine. The on site restaurant made getting dinner easy without having to drive into town.
