Old motel in decent condition (for its age), could do with some updates, the mini fridge buzzed all night. Noisy neighbours. Check in didn’t even want to see ID/credit card which was a bit odd. Pool def not in swim worthy condition - green as the grass it was next to!

The room was clean and comfortable. Parking was easy, right outside my room. The facilities were exactly what I needed to break my drive. Unfortunately there was a large group of people who decided to congregate outside my door and smoke and talk very loudly during the night. As well as a man who talked at the top of his voice and coughed and grunted all night next door.

Older style motel but very comfortable. Exterior/driveway/parking bays all re done. Bathroom had been renovated. Bed was very comfy & nice white sheets. Walls could do with painting and an extra lick or safety chain on door for added security. Would stay again without hesitation

The hotel was over priced and look very neglected won’t give you a safe or welcome feeling , the lock was not secure , the walls were paper thin I could hear people having a normal conversation all night until 6 am on the first night ,2nd night man snoring all night just horrible I think it should be rated 2 stars and cost no more than $100 per night I’d pay over $350 per night I will complain to consumers affairs it’s just abusive how much they charge- it really ruined my stay Keep away from this horrible place not a nice area ether

The family room we stayed in had recently been renovated. The bathroom was the most modern and stylish looking bathroom I’ve ever seen in a motel. But the toilet seat was loose, the hot water took ages to come through, we were only given one towel for three people and the cleaners had forgotten to empty the bin. It was an adjoining room and we had to sleep with ear plugs in since we could hear every word from the people next door. We were only there one night and didn’t use any of the general facilities so can’t comment on those.

It is affordable and the person at the reception was polite and helpful. The bathroom was disgusting with mold on the junctions, broken sliding door to the bathroom and leaking tap. The AC works but takes a long time to warm the room The carpet is old. To summarise it's a rundown motel.

Value for money stay.

For a low budget Motel the room was clean, quiet and comfortable and good value for money. Comfortable bed and would stay there again. Shopping not within walking distance but a take away pizza shop and Petrol station with well stocked convenience store 150 mtrs away. Limited stock of alcoholic bevereges available at Reception.
