The property does not deserve a 8.1 rating. Could not use the shower or the air conditioner due to there below poor condition, including foul smell. Beds were terrible. Motel was cramped with terrible parking. It was a very unpleasant stay, we couldn’t wait to leave.

The location was a positive as we were just passing through on a long road trip and the property was just off the freeway which is what we were looking for. The kitchen was well equipt with utensils etc. The main bedroom was reasonably comfortable. My husband spoke with the hosts and he said they were very friendly. I have to say the property has the making of a nice little place but it is looking a bit tired and run down. It smelt a bit musty and the decor made it feel quite dark. The grounds look like they need a bit of TLC as well. While I liked the fact there were fresh eggs from the resident chickens and there is an intention to be waste conscious (with bins etc for food scraps and recycling etc) there were no bin bags for general rubbish. This and the limitations on the general cleaning I think has lead to a pest issue (we saw A LOT of cockroaches! I am aware that it is summer season and a few cockroaches are inevitable but there were far more than the average). The bed linen I will add was clean and overall it was an OK place for a one night stay but we were keen to move on quickly. I dont like to be negative but I do wish that I had known about some of the above points prior - although there was no mention of cleanliness issues or cockroaches in other reviews it was our experience. So felt I should share with others.

Tidy enough place with very helpful friendly staff. Hotel was a bit on the old side but clean and tidy, like most Aussie motels probably suffered due to covid like all places in the world, good time for all accommodation places to give their places a new lease on life.

Loved the layout of units Didn’t like that they allowed smoking right outside rooms. Smoke drifted into our unit. Swimming pool was closed for winter which was hard to explain to kids who had come from -5deg to 18deg day. Pool was clean and looked inviting.

The Warm greeting we received from Peter was exceptional. The cottage was Cozy, clean spacious & extremely well appointed with numerous additional comforts supplied. A very extensive range of options to choose from for breakfast (included) & the offer of dinner repaired if wished. This was truly a home away from home, we only wish we could have stayed longer. We had our little toy poodle with us & she was received with a friendly pat from Peter. Glenys greeted us the following morning with a happy smile. We cannot recommend more highly, the best accommodation we have stayed at. Well done Peter & Glenys

We enjoyed our stay there as it was close to the expressway but not close enough to interfere with sleeping. We ate at the Raymond Terrace Bowling Club and found the food very good. We also visited the local Woolies which is a couple of kilometres south to grab supplies. You can get anything you need there in Raymond Terrace or Heatherbrae which is nearby. We were in transit to visit sick relatives and therefore were only basically staying there to sleep in the middle of our journey.
