I was very comfortable at Mid City Motel. It had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. It is quiet & protected & within walking distance of shops, eateries & all the central facilities. It has covered parking off the main street which is great. The staff were so helpful & friendly & supportive. I will be staying here again on my next visit to Ballarat & happily recommend to others.
