We had a lovely, big, clean room at the back of the motel. Can safely park the car close to the room, secured locked gates in the evenings. Quiet, slept well. Happy to return.

The room was quite modern and very clean. The bed was comfortable. I liked the large TV, and the comfy lounge chair. The shower water was piping hot, and there was an effective exhaust fan. The shower also had a non-slip floor. A bit more bench space around the hand basin would have been useful. On the whole our stay was a pleasant experience, and I would recommend it to anyone visiting Bourke.
