A great place, business or pleasure

The motel has chosen a wood floor type which makes the room much more wellcome (and clean) than the usual tiles you will find in 99% of accomodation in AUS in small towns. In bigger cities carpets seems to dominate. It was indeed clean all over, we will be back.

Everything was clean and comfortable and in good working order. I had a very late check-in and very early departure so did not meet staff but phone communication was polite and helpful. Key pick up procedure was effectively communicated and seamless. A positive experience.
