Review - The Sunrise Motel ⭐️

I'm sure you've often come across Second Life locations and wondered, why is this place not getting more traffic?

That's the thought I had when I stumbled across the really nicely done Sunrise Motel, part of the Bennetville National Park.

I am hoping that this review in a small way goes to change that.

Introduction

Pictured - Lilly Hexem

This is the second in my series of pieces about SL Motels. I won't be doing the reviews in the same way, simply because it's not fair to compare a motel which is often free, with a resort that charges 3000L a night.

However, I hoping this still gives you a good overview, and in the case of the Sunrise Motel, prompts you to visit.

Overview

The Sunrise Motel is one part of the the Bennetville National Park area, which also includes a camping area (with rentable spots), a cafe, a restaurant and nature trails.

It's very pretty, nicely landscaped and well put together. You could easily spend several hours here, and I would have no hesitation in bringing a date to the park.

I especially liked the bar / restaurant - the Oceanview Bar and Grill, with its outdoor terrace.

The Motel

The Motel has half a dozen rooms, which are well furnished and which actually include bathrooms - you can't always say that about free places. The beds are adult, if that is what you are after.

Things I liked about the Sunrise Motel

1 - Free, nicely designed rooms with bathrooms

2 - The owner has invested in Dutchie anims in the restaurant. These actually work and address.a pet peeve of mine - anims in public areas in hotels that look odd and where you waste time having to adjust. Top marks for this

3 - Not much lag

4 - An attractive park and forest where you can spend time

Overall - I highly recommend this place, go and show it some love
