Don’t be fooled by the photos and ratings. This is a classic old time roadside recently painted but un-renovated motel. Okay if you are economising and just want a bed. Bedding and room were clean but the beds were not comfortable unless you like them really hard. Great water pressure and lovely hot shower.

Excellent accomodation, clean & modern looking with everything matching the advertised description. Only negative was some very noisy neighbours and some traffic noise, being right on the main road through Karuah. Staff very helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

Parking was not convenient and co.munication re keys to be left and where to park was not explained. No information available in the rooms or online.

10/10 Exceptional

Is only when you arrive that you find out there is no one in attendance. It's not difficult, but as you can't check your phone whilst driving, it's a bit daunting when you get there and there's no one around. When you get your phone out to ring the number, that's when you read their text and it's all sorted. Quiet, clean and accessible to the town.
