Second time here. First time was an amazing experience! My expectations was really nothing of the sort for a 1 night stay. I just needed a bed as I was travelling and Goulburn was the 8 hour mark for me where I felt I should rest a little. Booked with a good price, just needed a bed for a night and had no expectations on anything really. Price was reasonable for a night stay and wasn't expecting to make the steakhouse dinner hours anyway at that time. I did not make the dinner time but that was okay. Didn't book it for the food even though it sounded pretty good and good prices too. Just needed a key and a sleep, that's all i was expecting. However! My stay was above and beyond all expectations i could fathom the first time. 8 months ago now(Time goes quick!) and I'm back! With the staff so friendly, welcoming, inviting, comfy room, and home like, I just had to book again! Tea and Coffee provided. Kettle, iron, extra pillows and blankets. TV and quite roomy! CLEAN room and everything you need. When I got home from travelling 8 months ago, I made a booking for the same place and room; and planned my future travel from this point. I just had to come back! Don't know why its only a 3 star. Very deserving of a 4*! They have such good food at the Steakhouse, ate breakfast there. The omelette was to die for! Bit of a let down as the steakhouse was closed this time round, really wanted to have dinner this time; but I did not book just for the food, I booked for the great(!), prior experience. Even though I booked 8 months in advanced I got the room I requested and had yet another amazing stay. I have to say, I will be back again when I travel next. This will be my go to for any travel outside Victoria to NSW. Probably regardless of wherever my travel will be to be honest. If this is slightly out by an hour of travel, I would detour and stay just cause of my prior, now 2 experiences. Dog friendly and comfy beds.

That i couldn't stay longer and the steakhouse was closed, so I had to get dinner elsewhere. Breakfast might of been open, I don't know. I had to leave a bit earlier than I had planned.

The room was clean and comfortable, nice new cabinetry, good tv and the bathroom had been updated. Comfortable bed. We were travelling with our small dog and this was the only pet friendly accommodation we could find. Continental breakfast was simple but appreciated as part of the room rate and Razi was lovely to meet us at check in and welcome us in the morning.

The carpet in the room was quite stained however but had been cleaned and didnt smell, as we were travelling with our dog this did not really worry us, we just kept our footwear on while we were in the room.

Room was quite large, as was the double bed. 2 seater sofa was a bonus. Large desk area with space for my travel bag to sit in. Fridge, Microwave, Kettle, Toaster and Hairdryer all available in the room, and were very welcome features. Good selection of tea and coffee, as well as mixed glassware and cups. Ample towels left in the room, and a sign explaining that long stay guests had no room service, but everything was easily available from reception.

Shower was a little tempermentle and difficult to get to the right temperature. Curtains weren't secured on both sides, so took a little fiddling to get properly closed at night time.

Friendly & helpful Staff Comfortable bed Great food at their restaurant !! Included is a basic breakfast of (cereal, toast with spreads, & juice) which was plus . You can also choose to pay for a cooked breakfast if you want. Pet friendly is a definite plus Clean Reasonable rate Close to town

I forgot to mention to staff- but the electric blanket only worked on one side of the bed.

Reception was fantastic when walking in! Easy booking online/booking app. Upon sitting on the single bed, I was feeling like it could be firmer but turns out I had the best sleep I've had in a very long time! There were coffee, tea, extra blankets, kettle, toaster, hair dryer, hand soap, TV, shampoo/conditioner/body wash dispensers in shower and well ventilated bathroom with a decent shower size. The room was small, but very cozy feeling and fit our purpose extremely well. Brilliant heater for the cold night! Yeah walls were quite thin so to speak, but no one staying there were disrespectful or loud. Hot breaky in the morning was fantastic. The omelette was huge, much bigger than expected and was so fluffy and perfectly cooked. It was a very clean room and well kept. Nice head boards and matching side table and desk under TV. All lights worked well, no issues the room at all. Would highly recommend for a night or even a few nights! Ill be going back in the near future 'Just cause' - as they were lovely and the food was great! Great pricing too. :) A+++++!

Parking spaces are small, no disability spaces I could see at night time, but I managed either way thankfully.

first time we stayed was a bit noisy, 2nd time much better as we had a room nearer the back

a couple of plates and some cutlery would have been good for take away meals

No breakfast provided?

Just 1 point, As most motels who offer pet friendly accommodation always add a ‘pet surcharge’for cleaning purposes,I do understand this,However, as the carpet was covered in pet stains from previous visitors this was not only unsightly but made the room feel dirty, although in general it was quite clean.I don’t understand the ‘extra’ charges when the carpets have obviously not been steam cleaned between pets. To be honest, pet friendly accommodation should probably remove all carpets from those rooms.( the staff did mention that they are changing the floor coverings in the future..) Otherwise it is a nice motel and will hopefully stay again.

The cleanliness and 24/7 reception. The convenience of the location after a long trip past Sydney on-route to Melbourne.

I was a bit upset that after searching Booking.com for a pet-friendly motel and then booking a room, that we were informed by the motel that there was an extra charge for a pet-friendly room. We should have known about that up front and not after we had made the booking. Having booked other pet-friendly accommodation before, this is the first time we have encountered that. Quite disappointing really.

Very Friendly Owner, Liked to have Chat, Good Selection for Breakfast, accommodation upgrade, into 2 room Family , Comfortable Queen Bed, Lounge could be upgraded. Quiet location. Allows Pets.

Probably needs some reno, but Covid would have restricted funds available.

The room was spacious and clean with all accepted amenities. The service was very good. The steak from the Steakhouse was good. Pricing was acceptable for a pet friendly Motel.

The carpet in our room was due for a good deep clean, it was not dirty, just had a few stains. Also the rooms could do with a little stronger air freshner, once again it was not a problem but a stronger clean smell would be a nice touch.
