Average experience
Average experience. The price was good, but you get what you pay for. No desk in the room, not enough power points, very rural (further out of Lismore than their advert says it is), poor phone reception, expensive to get a taxi out there, no chance of an Uber.

This is a nice motel. It isn't as glamorous as some I've stayed in but it's fine & very quiet - quite like staying on a sheep farm. The garden needs some work but January in a drought & heat wave is no time to criticise a garden. What was important to us was that the room was comfortable and cool and the owners are concerned about their guests.

Great hidden gym
Our car broke down nearby and we booked this place. David and Amanda were so helpful and kind, helping to drive us to Lismore to get supplies as well as helping us run errands. Surely, their service and hospitality speaks volume of this nice place.

Reception pleasant but uninformative,did not know of breakfast room.would of appreciated knowing it is ‘bring your own breakfast ‘as town is a fare drive,perhaps breakfast packs could be considered. Lacking in maitanence .Noisy for brick building,Pleasant setting which could be much better with attention to detail

日本のホテルと比べてはいけませんよ。 外国の田舎にあるモーテルです。 経営者が犬の散歩に行ってたらしく、1時間くらいチェックインできずに車で寝て待っていました。^_^ まぁこんなことはご愛嬌で話をすると普通に優しい おばさまでしたよ。(^^)
