You don’t expect the Taj Mahal but rooms need updating although rooms are very clean. I would suggest that it would be okay for overnight only not staying for a time. It’s right on main highway and gets quite noisy especially trucks driving through. Would have been nice before booking to be told that service is not provided on weekends as well as no breakfast.

Great stay
The Stirling was great. Comfy bed, small room but we didn't need anything more for just one night. Great location right near the highway and not too far to walk to the city area (about 2km), and we loved the walk in the moonlight.

We have stayed in this motel a number of times and this visit will be our last. By comparison, it is more expensive than alternatives. We chose the Stirling because of its location close to town and access to the highway, always appreciating its restaurant. The Restaurant is closed! The breakfast offering was very limited. The TV in our room badly needs replacing. Liquid soaps are in the shower and the hand basin, The shower was empty, the basin left streaks over the bench as it leaked. The basin itself is chipped and damaged, grout missing in the shower. Makings for tea and coffee, wine and water glasses but no plates, bowls or cutlery. Generally not what we were used to at this motel and not worth the extra money. Hopefully the new managers can turn it around and return it to its past glory.
