I spoke to a lovely young lady at the counter.....I said that I had called in a couple of months ago (was not sure of the actual timeframe) and said that I was shown a room with two double beds (suitable for my mother and myself) and did they have any vacancies...

We just wish we had read the reviews first before booking this place. The lady at reception seemed to be annoyed at our presence. The milk was off and the wi if password was out of date and there was paint all over the tiles. It wasn't very clean but on the upside the bed was comfortable. We just felt... More

Another disgraceful response to a very offensive human being who I have had displeasure of wasting my time with over this posting. She turned up early in morning and expected a room ready, we were full the night before and this person wasn't happy about what was offered. We had been rang from a local fundraiser to donate a room... More

Overall it was a decent motor inn for its price range, close to the New England highway. I booked with Wotif.com for comparison purposes. Amenities include: bar fridge [medium sized], toaster, kettle, coffee/tea facilities [with mugs, teaspoons], iron and ironing board, Austar TV with flat screen and dvd player, hair dryer, assorted towels, A/C, complimentary breakfast and guest laundry room....
