The bed was comfortable, room clean and area was quiet. Added bonus of complimentary cereals, tea, coffee, milk and biscuits. Only thing needed was block out curtains as a lot of light did come through the blinds. Overall a good motel for an affordable price.

Decent price and 5 minute walk to Anitas Theatre for show over the long weekend. Plenty of parking and check-in is via a SMS message to unlock the door. Had basic toiletries, towels,decent fridge and microwave. TV is a bit of a nightmare to operate and wifi is below average. Was pretty quiet once the restaurant customers next door at Andies left. Good price for what you get. Local hotel is next to Anitas and has plenty food to choose and the kitchen stays open until 4pm for lunch on the weekend. We went to go back there after the show but wanted a $20cover charge.For a pub! Visit the Tequila Bar on the walk back to the motel.

Great location but very overpriced for the room we had (21) which was at the end with a very bright light shining all night directly outside our window. The blinds were broken so couldn’t be closed properly. Bedside lamp light bulb didn’t work. Shelf in the bathroom had been broken off and not replaced.
