It's about 20 minutes from town. Cleanliness: Fairly clean, and the bed was comfortable. Facilities: Very old, don't expect much from a motel.

We had a great stay and Brigid and Jeff were wonderful hosts. The beds were comfortable and the shower good. We also had a tasty and generous meal next door at the hotel. The is a great place to stop for the night.

Old-fashioned and super-clean Kiwi motel from the 1960s and 1970s. A step back in time. Lovely and quiet, with helpful, friendly and unobtrusive hosts. Just a few paces from the Silverstream pub and its excellent food and beer!

A clean and well equipped room and kitchen. The beds were comfortable and the furniture were a little bit worn. I had an impression of a little time travel to the 80‘s. During the night the beam were making cracking sounds and sorry to say the passing trucks on the road were quite audible. So overall a 3,5 grade. Free wifi, coffee tea and parking.

My parents car broke down and they had to stay overnight and the most part of the next day till my arrival. Well, they really enjoyed that unexpected stopover - went for a walk through a beautiful avenue of grand old trees, visited the art galleries and even bought a beautiful quirky iron turtle. The owners of the motel were very helpful with the car and didn’t charge any extra for very very late checkout. Thank you!

I ended up changing my plans and approaching Kimbell from the opposite direction. i was also going to be later, but motel was accommodating about change in arrival time. This was good as I didn't to then have to rush. Strangely I ended up not seeing any staff during my comfortable stay. Sadly the place next door which was supposed to do a good breakfast was shut.
