"We weren't really sure what to expect when we booked Summerhill Motor Inn, given it was one the older looking venues in Merimbula. I can definitely say we were more than happy with our booking. The Inn was spotless!! Our room was immaculately clean, the bed was great and the pillows just fantastic. So much so we asked the owner where can we buy them!! Absolute value for money!!"
