The lady on reception was so sweet and helpful to us. We arrived very late due to bad weather and she was still available to check us in. Bed was lovely and comfortable. Would stay here again for sure.

Fine for an overnight stop
Easy little stop over motel. Lovely owner. The room were as clean and modern as they could be but still old if you look close enough..
Totally fine for an overnight pit stop!

Terrible experience
I booked a room with double bed and single bed for 3 adults, but I got the room with double bed and a mattress on ground when checked in at 7:30 pm. The receptionist showed me the room and told me it’s the only room available for us, then got off. I was so tired after driving the whole day from Adelaide, it’s dark outside, so I had to accept the fact. After I come back to my country and complain to Hotels.com 16 days later. Hotels.com told me that I should complain immediately or they can do nothing, funny client services.

Cute cats n kittens, lovely staff, loved the room with nice big window and watching the light creep in through the bathroom windows in the morning.
Unfortunately the shower was bad and there was a real nasty smell coming from the drain.

Wonderful staff!
We actually had a booking to stay the previous night, however had a family emergency that kept us in Melbourne 1 extra day. I contacted the motel & spoke to The manager Chris. She was so lovely & helpful, changed our arrival date so we weren’t out of pocket.
The place was clean and foxtel in the room was a plus to occupy kids.
Nice Walking distance to the fauna wildlife park & plenty of sheep nearby to take some snaps.

We booked online as the photo of motel & description sounded ok.
On arriving was shown the room which cost $122.32 via booking site.
Shower was dirty, spiders on floor near toilet and bed from the 1950’s
Returned key to key box and left the property.
Wish that I could cancel credit card payment.

Chris went out of her way to stay up for us when we contacted her saying we had been delayed and would not be arriving til around 9pm.
She upgraded our room when we arrived; and made us feel welcome by her friendly hospitality and providing us with a hearty breakfast to send us on our way.
A wonderful person made our experience very memeorable! Thank you Chris

No potable or drinking water available in Kaniva. Water has a strong smell of sulphur and unpleasant to shower in.

Poor form
Bathroom in desperate need of repairs from water damage (ie. Missing vynal tiling, water sodden timber work, floor moved like rotten floorboards), no exhaust fan. The rest of the room was fine. When I phoned to confirm my arrival time I was given a lecture about booking through hotels.com and how I should have booked direct - she may have had a bad day but my boss wouldn't accept me talking to a customer/client like that.

Overnight stay
The hotel manager was very accommodating and friendly. The accommodation on the other hand needs some TLC. Being an older motel there is obvious signs of wear and tear but there were some things that had nothing to do with the age of the motel that could be improved. The bedsheets could do with an upgrade. They were bit stained from being used so often and could be replaced. The tap water isn’t suitable for drinking and although distilled water is provided in bottles, bottled water from the supermarket might be a healthier more suitable option. Lastly, I’m not to sure when our room was cleaned last, but the rubbish bin had not been emptied before we occupied the room. Not a big deal, but it does make you wonder what other shortcuts were made when the room was prepared for the next customer.
