Excellent Accommodation for the area and great pri
This is our 3rd stay in 7 months, this is our go-to Motel from now on. Friendly and the rooms are clean and tidy. Excellent Accommodation for the area and great price
Loved our stay check in was easy, clear instructions provided via email a couple days before check in then text the day of check in. Was a quiet location and clean room. Bed was comfortable and water pressure was amazing. Cant wait to come back
The property is recently renovated, rooms are clean and pretty much most of the things are new inside the kitchenette. Bed was comfortable, room was spacious and quiet. They also have a very beautiful garden at the back where you can enjoy your evening.
Far better than I expected. It was cute, clean and just the perfect size and location. Slept well. Super easy check in and check out. I walked to dinner and back at night.
I had a wonderful stay at this motel!
The room was spotless, clean, and tidy, making for a comfortable and relaxing experience. The attention to detail and level of cleanliness truly exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this motel for anyone looking for a pleasant and hassle-free stay.
Pretty good stay overall however unit 2 which we stayed in has an aircon controller that only allows you to turn it on/off. No control over temperature, fan speed etc. The pillows were quite thin as well. Apart from this, the room was great. Very clean and had a good kitchen to make simple meals.
I enjoyed my stay at Dunrovin, the room was cosy and warm and was modern and well appointed. The location is quiet, but also only a short distance to the lake and town. Will definitely stay again.
