The staff were so welcoming and always keen to help. The room was good value for money and is located so close to the Main Street that you could just walk too. We also loved all the sheep images. The kids also loved the pool since it was hot weather.

It’s clear management takes pride in the appearance and comfort for the people who stay at this motel. Its quirky “shearing shed” theme nudges it above other motels in Dubbo.

Great place to stay.

The room was spacious with desks and eating areas. The bed was very comfortable. The only thing less than perfect - and this is a personal preference - the pillows were too high for comfort.

The room was clean & a good size. Only ordered breakfast once & it was 1 hour late & missing some items. No butter for toast, not enough milk for 2 cereals. Maybe we were supposed to supply our own. Other visitors to the motel were very noisy - banging doors & the room above us sounded like had elephants in it
