The motel is quite basic and rather dated and a long way from eateries and the CBD though a supermarket is 5 mins away on foot. No breakfast but rooms had microwaves and 'fridges. Comfortable and clean.

Walls paper thin - people in next room were up all night and kept me up all night. No sleep at all. Shower is a drip - no water pressure. No milk provided for coffee. Worst accommodation experience for a long time.

Room very old and smelt. Slept on a slat bed (usually motels have ensembles) mattress not too bad. Kitchenette and bathroom still in the 70’s. It looks like the owners DIY so they don’t spend any $$$ to modernize and bring it into nowadays. Showerscreen door hard to open and nearly came off the hinges

The staff were so welcoming on arrival and informed of the facility and where everything was. The pool didn’t seem heated which was disappointing. The room was very clean and we felt very comfortable to stay. Would stay again.

Not eco-friendly.
This is the third time I've stayed at this hotel, not in great condition but the people are friendly. This time they serviced my room even thought I did not put out the sign to have it serviced, very frustruting as I try to be as kind to the environment as possible and don't need clean towels and sheets every day.
