The whole place could do with a complete renovation. Paper thin walls. I could hear the next room toilet being flushed. Booked a deluxe queen room and expecting a queen bed, but only had a double with a very noisy mattress when you moved. Pillow problems also. I will have to find different accommodation in this town next time I travel through.

Very cute little motel in a gorgeous little village, the RSL does fantastic food, easy breakfast at the pizza shop which also does ordinary breakfast? You don’t have to have a pizza.

The rooms dreary, dull very uninviting. Bedside light base were rusty, microwave had rust marks over it, bathroom door was warped and nits flaking off. Bedspread had a stain in the centre of it. AVOID booking this motel. When I told the owner she looked and was amazed I had complained .
