This place is comfortable but tired and dated. It desperately needs a refresh. Complaints seem to be met with resistance and begrudgingly. Expensive for what is offered.

I loved my little terraced balcony on the ground floor. While it is a bit dated, the rooms where spotless and the amenities in the room were great. The people are so friendly and helpful, and the little town of Flinders is so cute. I had a wonderful 2 night break, so peaceful and quiet.

This motel is a 70s classic in its style - though has had a tough year with Covid and there is some maintenance work to be done. The 70s vibe is from the exposed brick and the wood-work and this could be highlighted. The heating system was either noisy (through-wall air-con unit) or a small fan-heater on the floor. The latter was enough (set on "low") to warm the room and was quiet...but would not be the most ecologically friendly solution. We had a very friendly welcome and a great breakfast next door.
