This was the start of a three week trip to central Australia. The motel was a bit dated and quite expensive.

A necessary stay en route to Melbourne but Bordertown deserves better. Cost was exactly the same as a far superior room at Robe- no comparison.

Simple, clean and neat, did the job for a stop.
Really comfy bed, but would have liked a second bed when I booked for 3 or at least a sofabed.

Needed a "pet-friendly" place to stop over on our trip back from Melbourne to Adelaide.
While the motel is a little dated, the room was clean and well-equipped with generous supplies of tea, coffee, milk etc
Service at both check in and check out were efficient and friendly.
We were pleasantly surprised to find a good Malaysian Restaurant in the town (Camca Garpu).
Overall a pleasant, refreshing way to break the journey.

Locality is good. However the units need a very needed update. Toilet had not been cleaned.
