It’s cold. Very cold. Wind blows through the windows.Screen rattles. Heater is noisy and doesn’t seem to make a dent on the cold. Restaurant closed and no basic equipment such as a plate or cutlery to eat supermarket food. It’s miserable and mean to not provide these basics especially when there is no alternative! No restaurants open in township (except maccas etc). Can’t wait to get out of here.

Family weekend away
The Zig Zag motel and staff are excellent. We have stayed here about 4 times now and eaten in the restaurant each time, every time there was a different menu and have not been disappointed once. Fantastic venue.

A couple of comments. The lighting outside the units is poor. The lights are only between every two units and the brightness is poor. Makes the need to walk carefully at night essential. The bathroom shelf is too small.
