great atmosphere, surroundings, no road noise really noticeable at all, nice rec room with table tennis, breakfast good, and so nice to just walk out and straight on the main street to walk up and down, go in shops etc.

The room was large, comfortable, fresh and quiet to say we were on the roadside. Graham was very friendly and helpful to guide us to where to visit in town. Big TV, everything else you need. Thanks so much would definitely recommend the place to anyone who is visiting Ararat.

Although surrounded by additional units under construction, our spacious, recently renovated room (with a gleaming, new bathroom) was perfect for a quiet night's rest on our long journey home. Moreover, the motel is very conveniently located close to fast food outlets.

We really enjoyed our stay. The staff were very accommodating, the room was clean and comfortable. They also serve really nice food. Highly recommended.

This Motel is out of the ordinary, lovely Manager very obliging & friendly. There have been recent refits, well done & comfortable, I love the handsets enclosed in plastic, no more filthy hand controls as we have all experienced over the years at other venues. Maryborough should take pride here & the price is good value, I can honestly recommend a stay here. I'll be back!

I was greeted by the owner who was friendly and willing to give me some clues on where to go for a meal. The room offered all I needed, in fact I was pleasantly surprised when I first opened the door.

Hotel staff very helpful with our late check in. Put on air-conditioner and left outside light on for us which was very appreciated. Room clean and spacey. Bed comfy. Quite and peaceful area.

A group of us stayed here for the first time and we will definitely be back again. Right from the moment we entered reception were we greeted with a friendly face and a great sense of humour.
Kate and Dave were fantastic hosts who could not do enough to make sure we were all comfortable.
The restaurant food was great as were the friendly staff looking after us during the evening.
Rooms were very clean and comfortable
Well done guys and we will see you again!
