Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We had to book a room at the last minute due to personal emergency. It was graduation week and our usual place was booked out. They recommended coming here. This motel was Great value for money. We managed to snag the last room for $209.00. Staff couldn’t be more friendly, helpful, welcoming! The guy behind the desk was awesome!! Room was a bit smaller than what we normally get (booked studio) but that’s really being picky. Couldn’t fault otherwise- really clean, everything so functional, bed really comfortable, great shower & bathroom and great environmental approach. Even had a small composting container for scraps, free wifi, sky on tv. Room overlooked courtyard- really pretty well kept garden. Free parking. Location great. We walked everywhere- city and hospital 13 minute walk. Couldn’t fault.
