Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
A nice modern motel with comfortable bed & good shower etc at a good price, a short walk from the main shopping/eating street, but it’s actually on the main traffic thoroughfare through Parkes, & also where that road turns, so the noise of heavy trucks braking & accelerating is quite obvious right through the night.

Comfort and space

Excellent reception service. Very clean and comfortable in a central location. The room was spacious and well laid out We had the family room for the extra space and 2 rooms and worked really well. A little road and rail noise blocked with a towel under door.

Fantastic accommodation

End of a long trip so I decided to use my free night for a more up market motel & I wasn't disappointed. Reception - excellent Room - fantastic bed, large TV with Foxtel & great bathroom with a very roomy shower. The room was well soundproofed from other rooms, but unfortunately around the door lacked soundproofing & the traffic noise from the near by main road was quite intrusive. I had a lovely dinner at the Restaurant. The motel is within easy walking distance to the main street and nearby Hotels & Club.

Meh!!

Offers room service but it’s not …. Japanese restaurant does take away. Also it’s like a housing commission complex at the back of the property near the pool…
