For a small country town was a good room and place to rest overnight during the drive. Staff and owner were very welcoming. Was a short distance from the local pub which we had for dinner. Bathroom was modern.

Quiet place away from the main street and Sturt Highway. Great WiFi, clean, comfortable, good constant hot water, and nice beds. The only drawback is it's a bit of a drive, or a very long walk, up the main street to get food. I've stayed in just about every motel in Hay over the years and I think this is now my go to spot.
