Great location near the heart of Halls Gap. Within 5-8min walk to most restaurants and shops. Kangaroos everywhere at dusk and dawn. Lots of bird life too. Could hear kookaburras at dawn. Our room was comfortable enough but doesn't seem very clean. The towels were on the thin side. Service wise, we requested for room make up service but the staff claimed we did not. We also had another guest trying to open our door. They told us the staff informed them this was there toom.

Fantastic. Would stay again.
We were slightly apprehensive given reviews of “aging and worn” rooms so we were pleasantly surprised by our room. It was large, well lit, and provided with all the facilities we needed. Huge bathroom with abundance of towels. Lots of electrical outlets for gadget charging which was atypical of other motels we stayed at during our trip. Small patio overlooking a large pasture with resident sheep. Guest laundry on site with reasonable charge. Hoards of cockatoos to entertain and overwhelm you should you ill-advisedly produce any edibles. Location on the edge of town was quiet and restful but easily walkable to shops and restaurants. This was one of our favorite stopovers on a two week trip and also one of the more economical motels we used.

not a nice place at all. Smelt of urine, fixtures and fittings old. Upkeep of property very poor. Dog poo outside the front door. Whole area needed sweeping and tidying up, Needed to ne properly cleaned. Biut also in bad need of renovation. Very disappointing especially with so many other motels around it. Not value for money. Would not recommend.
