10/10 Exceptional

The welcome was refreshing and kind, local knowledge helped find a nice place to eat in town. Room and facilities very clean and well appointed. Would recommend it for a nice clean room to relax and revive between places
Garth, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The property doesn’t look like it has had any remodeling one since it was built and it wasn’t built yesterday. Very ordinary, and it is situated between the highway and the railway line. the highway is busy at night with trucks. the cook was off sick and the owner (breakfast cook) was on holidays. Understandably is was cheap, and booked up for 3 weeks. Not what i would call the cleanest establishment either. The staff were friendly.
David, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Joe, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Simple, clean and neat, did the job for a stop.

Really comfy bed, but would have liked a second bed when I booked for 3 or at least a sofabed.

Balakrishnan, 1-night trip

Bordertown Motel provided the required overnight stop on our way to Melbourne.
Ron, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Check in was good. Facilities average. The food was poor.
Brian, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Needed a "pet-friendly" place to stop over on our trip back from Melbourne to Adelaide. While the motel is a little dated, the room was clean and well-equipped with generous supplies of tea, coffee, milk etc Service at both check in and check out were efficient and friendly. We were pleasantly surprised to find a good Malaysian Restaurant in the town (Camca Garpu). Overall a pleasant, refreshing way to break the journey.
Michael, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Basic Motel, perfect for one or two night stay, clean with friendly staff, unfortunately the Restaurant was closed due to staff shortages, so had to head out for Takeaway for Dinner

Quick overnight

Locality is good. However the units need a very needed update. Toilet had not been cleaned.

Easy to find
Peter, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Close to “white kangaroo viewing” but motel is very basic and in desperate need of renovation- staff shortages when we were there meant restaurant was closed but I doubt we would have been tempted anyway
Sylvia, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Staff were very welcoming and room was fine for a stop over but not accom I would want to stay longer than that. Carpet quite stained and limited to very little crockery and cuttlery (one platic teaspoon and 2 knives). Very noisy fridge, old air con but worked well and good shower.
Montse, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Too far out of town - no taxis to get into town. Dirty and so old.
Vicki, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

A good basic motel. Comfortable bed, everything was in good working order, shopping centre quite close by. Highway noise, especially from trucks, could be a problem for some but I wasn't concerned about it. John Quinlan, Bendigo

2/10 Poor

This property is very run down. The mattress was like laying on a plank of wood and the curtains don’t block out any light. Worst night sleep.
Tracey, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

there was no dining Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights
Norma, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Served a purpose

This was a pit stop on a road trip. The staff are very helpful. The room was well equipped with a fridge, microwave, kettle, toaster & electric blanket but was very dated with peeling plaster in the bathroom and enamel peeling in the sink. It's a short drive to the main town. If you don't mind constant traffic and railroad noise and basic accommodation then this is the place to stay.

6/10 Good

Nice staff. Quite run down. Bedding clean. Restaurant was advertised and influenced my decision to stay there but is not operational. I dont think I would stay there again unless I had no other option or the price was lowered.
