Property was run down. Gate to enter was missing so anyone could come into the property. There was trash scattered in the parking area. We had a very noisy room, could hear people going past at all hours as well as people using the washing machine nearby at 3am. Was a room for 6 but no amenities to match - 2 cups, 2 chairs, etc. There was mould in the bathroom.

The pre- arrivak instructions and communication was excellent. Family of 5 well accomodated for - very convenient for a quick stay and go. Beds crisp and comfy- hubby fell asleep straight away. 2 bathroom and showers- clean and newly renovated. Just the walls could do w a bit of cleaning. Need lighting to where the Lockbox is for keys, the entry to Carpark pinpad also needs a more obvious sign, as does the pinpad within the carpark as thats the only way in or out . Took us a while to find the keypads as it isnt well lit and quite dark. But overall its a handy little motel. Practical for a big family not wanting to spend on luxury for a short stay.
