Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Nice location and friendly staff. Terrible room it smelt of wet dog and cigarettes. The room looked nothing like the photos used to sell the place. In fact it looked like it had never been updated since the 60’s. Just a little paint here and there to cover up the atrocities that have no doubt been committed in the room.

The staff member at reception was great, very helpful. The gardens and pool area were clean, neat and well maintained. The room itself was very dated, in need of maintenance and an overall revamp and deep clean.

Overnight & convenient

The motel was aged but comfortable for an overnight stay. There was no body soap in the shower & the basin tap had a leak. Value for money though & convenient for eateries.

Look people, this motel is indeed due for an upgrade. You are paying $150 per night, not 3 or 4 hundred. The bed was comfy, parking right outside your room. Everything was clean and the owner/manager is a great bloke. If you drive a Holden, be prepared to talk about cars. He is a fan of the late Mr. Peter Brock. Give him a go and then maybe he can renovate.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
It looks like it was built in the 1960s and has had very little proper maintenance since. I arrived at about 3:15 pm and the room was not ready. When it was ready, it was very very basic. The bathroom is in very poor condition with many cracks in the tiles filled roughly with silicone, and lots of black mould. There were dead cockroaches in the crockery cupboard, and plenty of live ones running around the floors. The TV only has about 4 stations and none of the local ones work. The building creaks and bangs through the night. The bed was clean and comfortable. The best thing about it is that I now know not to stay there again.

The room was incredibly run down. Gauges out of walls, bedside lights didn’t work, no towels, no soap, bed was like concrete, broken bathroom louvres, graffiti on bathroom wall and very old furniture. The air con, tv and hot water all worked well. It’s a huge shame as this motel is in a beautiful area and close to the races and shops but there is complete disregard from the owner to the maintenance of the rooms.
