It is literally a highway motel. You get what you pay for, and it's located right next to the highway, making it quite accessible. The address was misleading though. We had to use the GPS location shown on Expedia to locate the place. So, in case you're being send into a mud road next to a gun range, you're probably heading in the wrong direction.

We were there for 1 night. Room was a considerable size. Had everything we needed eg microwave, toaster, crockery, etc. In the quieter end of town which we liked. Would stay there again

Comfy, clean beds and generally fine, but a number of dead crickets in the room. Step up to get into old-style shower a challenge for elderly guest. Ashtray on outside table had not been emptied.

We chose Advance for its pet friendly option. Staff were incredibly helpful and our greyhound had two very good nights sleep in with us. We need more hotels to be like this. ❤️

Friendly and clean. Because this motel allows dogs, guests are very chatty and approachable. It’s basic accomodation, but has everything you need for an overnight stay

Ok hotel. But disappointed they wait till you book and pay to say you have to pay $30 per dog per night. When you have to small dogs this is a rip off

The person in reception was unhelpful. The car park allocated for the room was taken. The fridge was switched off and stunk. The little bikkies to have with a cuppa were jatz - not sweet biscuits. Just not a great experience.

Unit was tired, plates were dirty in cupboard. No fly wire on our unit window but on most other units. (Mosquitos bad) When asked reception got told no fly wire, too bad! No effort to rectify issue. Friend travelling with us was given wrong bed setup, (that they had booked twin and paid for) and was told by reception to get a pull out was significant additional cost, even though motels error. Not happy!
