It’s clear management takes pride in the appearance and comfort for the people who stay at this motel. Its quirky “shearing shed” theme nudges it above other motels in Dubbo.

Great place to stay.

The room was spacious with desks and eating areas. The bed was very comfortable. The only thing less than perfect - and this is a personal preference - the pillows were too high for comfort.
