“Cheap but not cheerful”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 August 2011

The rooms were clean but not serviced properly. Each day they emptied the bin but I had to ask for toilet paper and milk for my tea. They took towels for washing but did not replace them - I had to borrow some from a friend in another room as the reception had closed. Not all the rooms had heating that worked and one of the electric blankets in our room didn't work. Also the power pack for the other blankets didn't work.

“Average”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 March 2011

We stayed here for 3 days/2nights. Motel is old and some people might find it unattractive. Motel is not far from the city centre which is in good location but their neon signs are turned off at night and you might miss your turn going in to motel. It is a very basic motel, good parking and have friendly staff. The shower temperature is not consistent, it fluctuates a lot. The bed is ok. I think it is value for money. We were there not for the motel but just make it our base for going around and to sleep after a long day of travelling.

“pay more and get something decent”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 March 2010

what can i say this place is a dump, The room was crap old, dirty with a crap double bed. The fridge stunk of mold and the mouldy smell in the room was masked with some cheap air freashner. I was dissapointed . The whole place was run down and needed a lot of work . Having a shower was impossible due to changing water presure. Some clowns partied all night in the hall way making sleep impossible

If you like a relaxing holiday dont choose this place , pay a bit more for a decent room in a decent hotel , i was dissapointed , and if i had not handed over my cash would have just cheaked out and gone else where

“Great staff - very basic motel”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 February 2010

person found this review helpful

Large room but in need of major upgrade. Stayed in a budget room. Bed sagged in the middle and most uncomfortable. Bathroom sink so small that brushing teeth was difficult. Very small TV made viewing a challenge.
On the plus side, it was very quiet and staff were incredibly friendly and helpful.
Could be a great motel if it had a major upgrade.

One of the good motels we have stayed in Australia. Spacious family rooms & lots of parking space at the back. Happy to be back in future.
