It’s very central in Ararat , walking distance to restaurants and takeaways. It’s only a short drive if you are planning on doing The Aradale tours , the Jail or any of the other historic sites

A convenient location
We were only using the motel for a one night stay but it was good for the purpose. The motel is located a little away from the main road so it was quiet and an easy stroll to the main street of town where there were choices for an evening meal
