“We’d definitely stay here again.”
The motel is a standard on a busy main road but the surprise was on opening the door to our room which had been upgraded and was excellent. It had a king size bed and was exceptionally spacious with two areas for putting suitcases, a kitchen area with a sink. There was no traffic noise inside and the bed was really comfortable.

“A great choice for an overnight stay in Ararat.”
The room was spacious, very clean & comfortable. The proprietor was very helpful in giving us a very good dinner recommendation to The Blue Duck, which was a very short walk from the motel.

“Location, location. Very friendly welcome and comfortable sleep.”
Thought the adjacent main road might disturb our sleep. But NO, the double glazing eliminated it to a non disturbing murmur. :-)
