Reception was through google translator as the polite young man couldn't speak any English and I don't speak Chinese, which i didn't expect in Balranald.
Bistro staff were polite but when I order and pay for an entree specifically to come out before the mains, with that exact request, only to have entree and main arrive together is appalling.
Crumbled lamb cutlets should be succulent, lightly crumbed and golden but when they have been deep fried they come out burnt, teeth shattering crunchy and dry it is refund worthy.
The sleeping area a very reasonable size with plenty of room for baggage etc. Bathroom and shower area small. Dated but very clean. Overall adequate. Had lamb cutlets at the affiliated restaurant. They tasted stale and very tough so couldnt eat. From that experience would not recommend restaurant but motel was clean and adequate
As mentioned by many reviews, the property is very dated but it was clean and tidy and the staff friendly. My main issue was the air conditioner in room 3. Given we were in the depths of winter, a heater is definitely needed. When turning it on, it literally screamed and whined and there was no setting where it didnât seem to do this. You had to raise your voices to talk over it. By the time we worked this out it was late and we had unpacked the car. So, to solve the issue and not have to change rooms, we put it on high heat and then turned it off so we could sleep. By morning it was very cold, but at least we could sleep.
