Very dated and basic room, grossly overpriced for what was received and felt ripped off. Friendly check in and clean, plenty of parking available.

Exceeded our expectations. Personally greeted on arrival, fresh milk for tea/coffee, biscuits and bathroom consumables was greatly appreciated, room was clean with every thing we needed for a comfortable stay. Pricing for family room was competitive. Easy convenient parking on site. Will definitely be back. Thanks

Room was clean, spacious and in decently good condition. Plenty of onsite parking. Shops and restaurant a short walk / drive away. Depending which side of the motel your room is at, expect some construction noise throughout the day - house / motel being built next door. Tough luck if you like to sleep-in in the morning.

It’s a motel isn’t it? Fit the bill perfectly.
All communications were responded to in a prompt, and friendly manner.
Has everything you need for a stop on a longer trip or a journey to the heart of Grafton.
