This is by far the most comfortable and well set up place of accommodation I have ever stayed in. Had toaster kettle, bar fridge & microwave which was great. Heating worked & electric blanket was lovely. Bed was comfortable & blankets warm enough. Parking right outside room made it easy to unpack & pack up. Didn’t use pool but kids would love it all year round. I will be back for another stay when running in a race again.

The on site dryer was a god send after our clothes were wet from a day out. The staff were friendly & accommodating to our requests. The indoor pool was great for the kids to unwind & warm up on the cold winter Ballarat weather.

Lovely room and easy to find

Easy to find. Was a spacious room with 1 queen and 1single bed. Comfy beds, hot shower. Big bathroom. Free WiFi but if you wanted Netflix etc you had to use your own account. Kettle, tea, coffee, sugar and toaster. Electric blankets. Heater was good. Indoor heated pool. Staff were helpful and friendly. Easy parking. Motel has a restaurant or you can go to Lazy Moes next door with yummy food.

It's a nice motel, very spacious rooms. I used to hold events here years ago. It is now becoming dated, the rooms need an upgrade and the restaurant they lease too has a 3 star rating so not amazing, however I would still stay here again because I know the place.
