I paid for a room 'deluxe suite' I was told. I was not informed of where and how to access the free WiFi. The air conditioning remote control holder had fallen off the room.. loose screws. The sliding door to the outdoor area was unlocked - unsecure. Unimpressed with the standards of this establishment personally. I left prior to check out.. no communication from the staff since!

The only issue in regards to my stay at the property was that the fridge in my room (room 14) was not working properly and this caused the drinks I had in there to freeze within hours of putting them in the fridge

this place was sketchy as hell, the vibe is OFF. facilities broken, the place looked like someone went "we should get a builder/painter/plumber to look at this" and some guy went "nah i can do that easy" and failed hard. saved this review until after i got my bond back which i did in full, was genuinely surprised when i got it all back because the whole thing is just OFF. to be fair though, it's waterford. being so close to loganlea this motel is probably a 5 star for the local area's standards. i would rate this a 2 star at best.

The staff at check in were friendly enough. The room was basic - we found a pillow without pillow protector and a large old blood stain on it. The windows didn’t have locks and could be easily opened, the door had a very simple lock that if you pulled the handle down when locked from the inside it unlocked! I was travelling by myself ( mum) with my 3 young daughters- Late into the night we had someone knock at our door which made us all feel very unsettled, there was so much noise with people stomping up the stairs and doors slamming all through the night ( after finally falling asleep- I was woken with my heart racing after a massive bang which I think was a door slamming). Needless to say I didn’t sleep for the rest of the night as I didn’t feel safe. We were supposed to stay 2 nights and had paid for 2 nights - I booked alternative accommodation for the following night and got out of there as fast as we could. We didn’t get refunded 😡

Food outlets in the area, so convenient. My room was away from the street so it was quiet. However don’t rely on the check in time published on the internet. I arrived on time to find reception was closed. However reception left instructions in a sms. This was an average place to stay for an overnight stay. Room needed to be cleaned of crumbs.

Hi Claudette,Thanks for your reviewOur reception is usually open till 8 pm unless the manager has to look after a guest. We will work on your feedback and make sure the next time you stay with us you have an effortless Check-In and a Spotless room.

I wasn’t happy with my stay and won’t be coming back. Bathroom smelled really bad, only two towels in room even though I booked x3 kids and myself in for the room, toilet buttons broken, fridge wasn’t clean, beds were uncomfortable, power point wasn’t fixed to wall properly and come away from wall a little when I went to plug my phone into it which isn’t safe for kids. Don’t recommend this property at all
