Excellent stay in Central Motel.

The motel was conveniently located in the centre of Mount Gambier and for a budget price it was above expectations. Will definitely stay next time I’m in the area.

Great location, walking distance to town center, pubs and a few tourist attractions. The only downside is that the shower pressure was inconsistent and the aircon didn’t work. Overall, we had a great stay.
