Australia“Several Pet friendly rooms near a Vet Surgery which is an appreciation to those who travel with pets. Nice touch of water bowl, grassed area out front for toilet duties and the motel is up the road from the Botanical Gardens. Fresh clean rooms...” - Angela Australia“Clean and accessible, allocated pet friendly rooms which was great to see.”
- Ayumi Australia“Easy to find and very clean, spacious and big bathroom”
- Danny Australia“The manager was more than happy to offer a different room to accommodate our family and pet at no extra cost. A rare and really appreciated experience these days, customer service and just a good human putting people before profit. 👍🏻”
