Great value. Really clean property and friendly greeting on arrival! I did not have time to have a swim, but put my leg into the water at the pool and it was warm. Very very clean pool. Really impressed with the cleanliness. Old classic road motel charm and service! Thank you for a great stay!

Had a wonderful stay in a double deluxe. Manager showed me the standard double which was very nice and the deluxe which had some nice touches. Reading lamps and power points and usb chargers on the bedsides. A larger more modern bathroom. I will bring the family next time I head this way to see the Grampians. Can hike in the morning and relax in the pool in the afternoon. Traffic noise was less because it was a quiet weekend, but have to expect some noise at a place called HiWay :)
