For an old motel that has been bypassed by the highway relocation, it was surprising. The outside was fairly dated. Inside the room I stayed in was WoW. Clean, functional, modern, which included the bathroom, bedroom and amenities wardrobe / kitchenette. The price was EXCELLENT. I have often paid $30-$40 more for the same level of accommodation at other motels. The manager phoned me at 5.30pm to ask what time I would arrive. Told him around 9.30pm, and asked if he could please turn the air con to heat the room before I arrive. Got in at 10pm with outside air temp 6 degrees. Room was toasty warm. Turned on the electric blanket, showered, had a cuppa and into bed. Slept like a log until 8.00am. HIGHLY recommend, and will stay here whenever I again drive to Melbourne.
