Beechtree Motel

Beechtree Motel

10/10 Excellent
"From the moment we arrived staff were super friendly. The room was a great size and perfect for our family of 4. The beds were the most comfy beds I have ever slept on. The day I had left I realised I had left an earring behind. The staff went above and beyond to find my little tiny earring for me. Would 100% recommend. Thanks team at Beechtree"
