Don't be fooled by the shabby exterior of the property, this motel provides all you need if you are wanting a clean, safe and quite place for one night. The staff went above and beyond to ensure I could access my room after hours and the room was clean and very comfortable. I'll stay there again.

The hotel was a great stopover on a long trip. The room was clean and seemed to be newly renovated, the beds were comfortable and there was a new air-conditioner in the room. The night was very quiet. Check in was super quick and easy and there is a supermarket one minute walk away.

Cramped, basic ‘bed for the night’ accommodation, tiny bathroom, cold uncarpeted floor. Overpriced at $170 a night compared to another motel very close by. But staff welcome was ok and the room was very clean.

The room & facilities were good as was the parking. The staff were excellent. However, there were some problems with the wifi, which I was told, should be a short term problem.

What you would expect from a Hotel Motel in this price range. Clean and comfortable and good meal. A bit tired but that’s why it is $120 a night.

Liked: Cleanliness
The sleeping area a very reasonable size with plenty of room for baggage etc. Bathroom and shower area small. Dated but very clean. Overall adequate. Had lamb cutlets at the affiliated restaurant. They tasted stale and very tough so couldnt eat. From that experience would not recommend restaurant but motel was clean and adequate

Dirty, stained carpet. Nobody was brave enough to try the ancient, broken bath/shower and just as well because only 2 towels were provided for a 4 bed room. Same with cutlery and crockery. Beds were clean.

On the positive it is actually relatively quiet and the bed was very clean and comfortable. Very accommodating of my furry companion. But the carpet and bathroom felt very dirty. And the staff were almost non existent. I’m not sure how I would’ve contacted them if I needed to, which was possible as a solo female traveller. A bit of customer device and extra deep cleaning would go a long way to improving this place.

It was clean, linen and towels good. The second room I booked had no lighting in the bathroom. No milk in the fridge and limited tea/coffee sachets. On the whole it was good just a few little things need fixing/updating. My screen door had no handle on the inside so I couldn’t close it.

As mentioned by many reviews, the property is very dated but it was clean and tidy and the staff friendly. My main issue was the air conditioner in room 3. Given we were in the depths of winter, a heater is definitely needed. When turning it on, it literally screamed and whined and there was no setting where it didn’t seem to do this. You had to raise your voices to talk over it. By the time we worked this out it was late and we had unpacked the car. So, to solve the issue and not have to change rooms, we put it on high heat and then turned it off so we could sleep. By morning it was very cold, but at least we could sleep.
