This place did not live up to the photos on its website. The hotel looks nothing like what they have advertised. We were quite disappointed to find that it is not a hotel at all, but a motel. It was a good deal, so we weren't expecting a palace, but this was quite a step down from our exectations.
On the positive side, it was clean and quiet and staff were very efficient and helpful. But we were taken aback by the shabby quality of the rooms. It was cold, there was a bare tile floor. The bathroom had an automatic fan the blew in air from outside-- which was very unwelcome in the winter chill! Did not feel entirely safe either, with the flimsy locking mechanism on the doors (internal and external).
It wasn't clear when we booked on wotif whether or not breakfast was included. Breakfast was included and was decent. Buffet-style, so you could eat as much as you liked.
It seems that the motel is in the process of renovating some rooms. It could be that there are rooms of a higher quality, but we didn't see these.
