    • Clean, comfortable, and nice hot shower!
    • Clean.
    • Absolutely spotless

    Cons -

    • The twin beds were small and not too comfortable, bathroom sink was very low on the wall. No coffee press. Was a bare minimum place.
    • The bed was extremely hard and I couldn't sleep. Although updated the interior could have done with a shelf in the bathroom for toilet bags to sit on. Also the kitchen area would benefit from having the microwave up on a shelf giving some bench space to put food on a plate
    • They don't give you shampoo, only body soap.

    Clean room. Milk provided. Hot shower.

    Very tidy, clean facilities. Extended parking was available at $5 per day while we were tramping The Old Ghost Rd. There was a swimming pool which would have been very pleasant in summer months and the grounds looked lovely.

    We passed two road signs in Murchison stating that the rooms were a much lower price. When I questioned the price I was told the signs were very old. I think it is (unintentionally) misleading leaving them up with inaccurate information.

    The one bedroom unit was spacious and well equipped. Very quiet and warm. Guest laundry was great to have use of. Close to town to walk to shops and cafes.

    7HilaryPosted on: 3-26-2025

    Nice quiet location. Pleasant welcome and beautifully clean. Nice touch of brush and water to clean one's windscreen.

    No sink to wash plates, just bathroom basin.

    8EnglishPosted on: 3-8-2025

    The location was great. It was convenient,, compact, clean and a good location. The was a lovely walking track at the end of the road and interesting shops, a museum and cafes within walking distance into town

    Needs a little TLC

    10MlacPosted on: 3-6-2025

    Very clean and warm. Everything we needed was there and the beds were very comfortable

    8SimonPosted on: 3-2-2025

    Good sized living space with good kitchen facilities and nice balcony to enjoy the afternoon sun. Close to shops and restaurants.

    9JoPosted on: 3-1-2025

    This motel is located a block or two off the main street in a quiet area. Comfortable beds. Adequate kitchen, facilities and parking right in front of our room. Just right for a one night stay

    No air conditioning, but there was a fan

    7KayPosted on: 2-28-2025

    Clean room and comfy bed. Having plates and cutlery was a bonus

    Room small and crowded. bathroom sink too small and very low

    9V.bPosted on: 2-25-2025

    lovely setting, friendly and cheerful staff

    there needs to be some hooks and counter space in bathroom

    5StokesPosted on: 2-22-2025

    It was somewhere to stay, although not close in to the town.

    It was very small, the smallest 'standard' place we've ever stayed. There was nowhere to hang anything, with only one small hook in the whole place. Parking was outside our room.

    9JuliePosted on: 2-20-2025

    Friendly owner. Very clean and great for a one night stay after a long drive.The bed was very comfy,so had a good night's sleep.The gardens are gorgeous

    Very small unit and there were lots of sandflys in the unit.

    8SuzannPosted on: 2-18-2025

    It was very clean and tidy. It was great for walking the dogs with the river walk at the end of the road.

    9KevinPosted on: 2-17-2025

    Good location for our needs

    Bathroom hand basin far to low for an adult but otherwise a good useable bathroom
