Flinders Motel

Quite a comfortable / compact little room if you're planning a one night stop-over. A couple of things could be improved on. They need to make the room numbers a lot clearer. They are so small that you have to get out of your vehicle to read them. But of more importance is the fact that on the evening I turned up, the person at Reception was not that friendly. Wasn't rude or anything like that, but I travel constantly, and am always having to use motel accommodation. Most recption staff greet you with a smile, ask how your day was, or how far you've travelled, or some other form of chit-chat. But this person was sour-faced and not really the type of person who should be at the "coal-face' of a business. That aside, the room itself was good value-for-money. Only thing I could fault was because I was at the rear of the building, there was a bit a train noise. Had air-conditioning and a ceiling fan, both of which I made good use of in the stifling heat. As I said, worth it for an over-night stop. Would get cabin fever if you were there for any longer though. (Date of experience: Jan, 2011 )
