8/10 Good
"The rooms clean and tidy. For an old motel and dated decor. Breakfast were enjoyable and well attended each morning. Staff pleasant and engaging. Parking on site was a huge must for us as we all travelled by car to meet in Ballarat. Walking distance to good pub grub. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay"
