The staff were friendly and polite and the room was clean, but the bed was way too hard for me, the light to the bathroom worked spasmodically and it was very noisy with the traffic on the main road constant all night.

This motel is very clean, freshly painted and new bathroom. Soaps come in plastic wrapping which is a disappointing choice. They provide small plates, small mugs, glasses, teaspoons and knives. Bring a bowl and a larger spoon if you fancy cereal. I think its a bit expensive for the basic simplicity but it is very clean and fresh feeling in the room. Fire alarm was beeping when we arrived but they fixed it straight away.

Handy basic motel for visiting the Theatre Royal, as its walking distance, beside a road so can be noisy. Room and bathroom are both spacious and have what you need for an overnight stay.

Spotlessly clean, however toilet had a slightly unpleasant smell. Mattress uncomfortable: needed a mattress topper. Towels very thin. Lighting, as in most motels, was poor.

Easy accommodation options in Castlemaine. A bit overpriced but probably just taking advantage of the lack of options available, so good luck to them. The playground is run down and the pool is tiny but for a night's sleep, it was clean and functional

Good value for money budget motel.
Basic motel, fine for a 2 night stop in Castlemane. Sofa a bit shabby. Bed was OK, shower was good. Some traffic noise but not enough to be a problem. Garden/pool does not look anything like the photo. Pool looked a bit run down and was closed. Overall good value for money but a budget motel.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
This would have to be the worst accommodation we have stayed in. Booked in for 3 nights but only stayed one. When we arrived there was no one at reception. Rang bell and noone answered so called number on door as stated. Guy answered and said he'd be there in 5mins as had to run into town to grab some lunch. Room was just horrible. Huge crack in the wall, old bathroom and shower just had a curtain. TV didn't work. Pool was closed and appeared to have been that way for months. Bed coverlet appeared dirty however sheets appeared clean. No free toiletries provided. Toaster and kettle provided but no plates. Would never recommend this hotel or stay there again. As I said, only stayed one night as could not stay after that.

nice clean room and bathroom, but the beds were hard, the pool was nice but the spa button didnt work, the grass area was nice but no where to sit there, so it needs another table and seat set on this area next to the pool
