"Lovely room and beds were excellent. Bathroom & Kitchenette were excellent. Relaxing atmosphere after a very long drive.
Fish & chips in town and back to the Motor Inn - I would definitely stay here again."

The guys running this motel are such great people they can do nothing but succeed. On learning that we were there celebrating our 61st wedding anniversary, they 3D printed a beautiful rose and stand and presented it to us on checkout . They won us with that.

Only a 5 minute walk from the main street. Was only there one evening but comfortable, clean and although my room was next to the motorway I slept fine throughout. Massive thank you to the owner who saved me from missing my bus! Not only did she bring my left luggage down to the bus stop last minute she carried on driving to pick me up and bring me back. Life saver!

Three of us had a lovely stay at the Alpine View, which is just a few minutes drive from town. The owners are hilarious with their cheeky banter back and forth and they keep the rooms impeccably clean. This is a great budget priced venue that far exceeded our expectations. Highly recommended.

Bella Vista motels pretty much anywhere had it's distinct quality. We've been to a few.
Ample parking space, clean and hygienic facilities and accomodating staff.
Good value for money.
Great for travellers.

Instructions via email was clear which room was ours and how to enter the room. Unit was clean and spacious. Close to New World, walking distance. Only downside, it is very noisy with the traffic at night on the main road.
