What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“Great stop over, friendly staff a touch of real australiana. They couldn’t have done anymore to be accommodating or make us feel welcome…”
“We blew a tire on the road and had to stay here for the night while waiting to see a mechanic. We arrived after opening hours but the owner Kelly has been so kind with us. She asked us if we had dinner, and gave us food even after kitchen closes. The room was so nice after this hard day, hot shower and great food, aircon, TV with all streaming platforms, fridge microwave… and the room/sheets were clean. This is a great place to stay.”
“Super friendly and amazingly helpful staff made us feel very welcome. Clean, neat, and tidy rooms and facilities. Would stay again, thank you !”
