Fantastic for a budget stay place at this price point. Whilst exterior is tired & a bit shabby - the unit itself was great. Well appointed; super clean & a shower that was hot & powerful. Being a block back from main road means it’s quieter than other places. As a stopover motel - I’d highly recommend it and shall return.

After a long stressful drive where I was constantly held up with roadworks and slow vehicles, I was very late and was going to miss the cut off time for the office.
Upon arriving I was greeted by the most lovely lady on the front desk who reassured me it was no problem I was late. I then later checked my messages to see they had tried very hard to contact me ( I was driving so couldn’t check my phone) and had arranged for me to still access my room no matter the time. It honestly made my Day.

We arrived late at night, instructions for unit was easily understood, room was lit and warm. Highly recommend this place, and would not hesitate to stay again.
