Between broken facilities, noise, and poor bathroom conditions, the stay was below expectations.
Pros:

The location is great, bed is comfy and it ends there.

Cons:

Unfortunately, my stay was quite disappointing due to several maintenance issues that really affected comfort.

The TV didn’t work at all, the outside light flickered throughout the entire night, and the shower (Room 21) was spurting water from the wall and clearly needs to be checked. The room next door also had a screaming tap — every time they turned the water on, the noise carried loudly through the walls.

The shower didn’t feel inviting or well maintained, and the bathroom lighting was very poor (way too bright) and made the space even less appealing.

I also had to follow up re check-in, which I’m glad I did as the booking.com and hotel information are not consistent!

Overall, the room felt in need of maintenance and attention, and these issues made it difficult to properly relax during the stay.

Great Location with quirky decor
Pros:

Our room was thoughtfully decorated and had everything we needed to have a simple dinner. We loved the local wine in the room at very reasonable prices. Free laundry service was a huge bonus.

Cons:

The plumbing from the rooms next door is a little noisy.

We really enjoyed our 2 night stay and would definitely consider it again if we're ever in the area.
Pros:

The exterior and interior of the motel. Set on a large acreage the motel is 6's style. A fun place with 60's colour schemes and 60's objects.
The restaurant was very good for dinner.

walking distance to the little town of Lyndoch.

Cons:

No breakfast available but seems to be usual in country towns these days. Cafe nearby was fabulous for breakfast.

Amazing location amazing staff amazing Italian restaurant! Everything was just fab
Pros:

The breakfast supplied was excellent value and the staff were amazing also loved the Italian restaurant connected to the motel

Cons:

I would have like the reception to be open maybe a little bit later and maybe on the Sunday in this stay it didn’t matter because we left on Sunday morning but if I was staying longer it would be nice also maybe rooms stocked up daily with tea coffee toilet paper etc

overall stay was comfortable close to the venue we were attending
Pros:

room was good , bed was comfortable, i liked the bottles of shampoo and conditioner and body wash and lotion, the carpet was lovely and soft, it was good for overnight stay .private with good blinds,

Cons:

finding the motel was the worst part not enough signs , the we didn't get our allocated car park because others chose to do the wrong thing,opening the fridge was like opening a safe, value for money i personally don't think so.
