Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Friendly and helpful staff. The outside vibes are a bit scary but the room was clean and appeared to have recently been redecorated, the bed was comfortable and the air conditioning functioning well. There was even a microwave, kettle, toaster and plates/cutlery to suit limited self-catering. I was a bit surprised at the lack of blanket or quilt - the bed comes with a sheet only. I was at the back so it was quiet but I think it could have been noisy if you were near the main road. Very good for the price

This motel is functional and clean. Reception was very friendly. Comfortable and clean bed, updated cabinetry, hot shower. You can't ask for more for less than $100 pn. A couple of small things that would make a difference are covers on the lights and a smoke alarm.
