Great accommodation. Self contained one bedroom unit with parking just at your door. Everything was very clean, had heating, an electric blanket, all the basics required in the kitchen, tv in lounge and bedroom. The bathroom had under floor heating and was very clean. Close to town with supermarkets, bars and restaurants. I Would stay here again.

The 0wner had asked motel users before they built a new block , what sort of features were important. The unit was fantastic and even had a heated bathroom floor....and best of all 3 3pin plugs in every area!!!

Our room was modern and very clean. All that we required. Loved being able to park outside our door great for unpacking and packing. The bed was comfortable and bedding good. We enjoyed our stay and will return in the future.

Talia • Couple Trip

What we didnt like was the laundry facilities. Had 6 days of clothes and it didnt dry so had extra time to stay a bit longer in Gore. What we like was the space of the room, comfy chairs and bed, good shower pressure, had everything in the kitchen facilities.
