It’s clear management takes pride in the appearance and comfort for the people who stay at this motel. Its quirky “shearing shed” theme nudges it above other motels in Dubbo.

The room was clean and spacious and the owner went to great lengths to attempt to accommodate a late request on our part. The price was very reasonable. The only thing was the shower head was on its way out and wouldn't stay above my head .....

Great place to stay.

The room was spacious with desks and eating areas. The bed was very comfortable. The only thing less than perfect - and this is a personal preference - the pillows were too high for comfort.

We arrived much earlier than expected and were warmly welcomed by the staff, which was greatly appreciated after a long drive. The room was spacious, clean, and perfect for our family of six. The location is convenient—close to food options and easy to get around. Unfortunately, we did have very loud neighbours who disturbed our children’s sleep several times throughout the night, which did impact our overall stay, but not the fault of hotel. Otherwise, it was a great stopover.

We stayed in the Deluxe King room and had a great stay. The room is very spacious, the shower pressure was great and the bath was an awesome feature. Location was quiet and convenient. The only negative was that none of the windows in the rooms locked. I mentioned this to staff upon check out and was advised they are aware that they don’t lock and was assured there and cameras around the property. I personally don’t feel this is a satisfactory situation.
