If you're after a clean, comfortable semi decent place to spend the night purely to sleep then this place is fine. If you're looking to spend a bit of time in here it's not. The rooms are a throw back to the 70s and could do with a refurbishment.

The main problems are the walls seem super thin. All you need is some cloven hooved mess coming home from a night of way too many UDL's stomping around the main hallway to wake you up and ruin your sleep.

At least the service was great, friendly, fast and efficient.

not quite sure what the people rating this place highly received for accommodation but i agree with some of the dump descriptions from pparko - my room was old , badly painted , looked like it was a converted store room with a old walk in freezer which the staff member told me was for storing dead bodies ! in fact it had lots of very smelly wet and mouldy doonas . the bed was uncomfortable and i had a multitude of insect visitors across it during the night . the staff did apologize and assure me that the room had just been pest controlled but i think the insects wern't aware of this . i also found numerous creatures in the bathroom. I have stayed in better places in Asian backwaters. Definitely give this place a miss unless you are happy with a bad backpacker type experience. luckily i was only here for a very short visit .

Room tip: just dont stay

Sorry but we don't have any rooms with old walk in freezers in them and I have no record of your stay Maybe you reviewed the wrong motel or perhaps you're on drugs!

Perfect for a budget, very clean rooms. Not the most modern place, but service and cleanliness are outstanding.
Definitely recommend getting breakfast.
Staff are friendly.
Very close to the airport, and a short taxi ride into the city.
Definitely recommend.

The staff here is super nice. The rooms are super basic - we had a queen/single bed combo room with our own bathroom. The bathroom also had its entrance door was a little weird but it was fine. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable - it was fine for our visit to Darwin. We had our own car, so the location was fine for us.

Room tip: There are no elevators - if you need one, stay on the first floor.
