Huge room, nicely updated with modern decor. Bathroom was gorgeous! Large kitchenette through somewhat limited dishware, etc. Close to everything in Apollo Bay but quiet for sleeping. Wi-fi connection wasn't great.

We quite liked the motel, and the location was great. It was clean and well appointed, with friendly staff. Really the only complaint was the wifi … streaming wasn’t really possible which was annoying but we could get over. Our challenge was that we couldn’t even do basic web searches to look up plans for next day … just kept stalling out on searches. Good place otherwise!
