We stayed one night here. The rooms were clean, spacious and everything one needed was present. The staff were very friendly on arrival. The place is a bit old fashioned but certainly adequate. The walk into town was further than we had expected.

The lady (from Canterbury NZ) was very helpful and friendly and showed me the route for a relaxing walk throught a charming park and past some heritage buildings. The 'flat' was spacious and clean. The gardens outside are well maintained. The bed was comfortable. Not sure what was on... More

A friendly welcome and complimentary bottle of milk was received before we were shown to the two bed unit we were assigned. Parking directly outside made moving luggage into the unit easy. Large and spacious, good sized kitchen, huge shower. A very peaceful nights sleep. Recommended.

Very friendly and fast check in although a couple of hours early. Two bedrooms very up market and far advanced compared to street view of the property. More like a small house in layout than the usual motel design. Full kitchen and quality appliances. WiFi only $5 per night. We would definately return.

The units are a little dated but they are well enough equipped. A very quiet position and close enough to walk to Town.

Oakleigh motel host Chris was extremely helpful over the phone with the booking and welcomed us warmly when we arrived. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. We stayed in a unit with... More

Found simply as a stopover en route, this small motel was a pleasant find. A little dated, but all essential facilities, clean, and quiet, and only $130 for a 2 bedroom unit.
