We stayed for a couple of nights at Russell Motel. The accommodation was small but very cutely furnished with comfy beds and everything else that we needed. The hosts were so friendly and kind. Didnt feel like i met them for the first time. There is a small pool that is realh cute and the girls had a dip, although it was a cold day. The location is very close to everything you need. Would love to go there again considering that my fur baby was also welcome and they kindly offered to sit her while we enjoyed lunch at a restaurant. Thanks fo everything James and family

Disappointing
Fairly tired old motel with no view and no air-conditioning. Advertised as having Sky but no channels available. Reasonable distance from any restaurants and bars and not particularly good value for money. Only thing that sticks in my mind is reading in the compendium that the room rate doesn't include them doing your dishes?? Not sure how that rates with a covid clean between guests?

The owners were very friendly and welcoming. We were in a king studio which was lovely and spacious and clean. Only a few minutes walk into Russell township and was nice to have a swim.
