Report
The Otway Gate Motel is extremely clean and the staff are friendly and welcoming. The rooms are immaculate and the shower heads are amazing with full glass enclosures, rather than curtains. Their breakfast is delicious, though I've really only had the poached eggs. The only down side is, they don't have Smart TVs.
Otherwise, Highly Recommended!

The room was modern and appealing and the owner very helpful (great that the office is open till 9.30, as many close earlier). The efficient heating and electric blanket were much appreciated. The hot water could have been a tad hotter. While the setup is very aesthetic, it is not super practical, as the microwave (in my room) was on the bottom shelf of a closed cupboard and the fridge is in a closed cupboard and was a bit difficult to access it all the time. The motel is on the main road, but the traffic noise mostly ceases overnight. The motel is not easy to find as there is little external lighting
