Rooms were clean, parking is first in first served and a warning for thise that smoke or vape on the premises outside on site its a $250 fine. On check in the cleaners were still getting rid of rubbish and laundry outside the rooms I'm guessing they had alot of guests. No tea towels or kitchen sink for doing dishes or stove top but had a extraction fan. Good for a hassle free short stay.

The place is advertised as a Hotel, but it clearly was originally a Motel that looked like it had been converted from 'emergency housing' or a 'men's lodge' into tourist accomodation. The rooms were spartan, neglected, the paint was chipped in places, it had the worlds smallest TV in the lounge area with a lone couch (no side tables) and had the vibe of a student flat. In the 'kitchenette' - what once had been a kitchenette had been uninstalled and a new bench top put in, but the extractor fan remained . The bed seemed new and was comfortable, but the whole room shook every few minutes and there was loud banging from a construction site next door installing piling. Would definitely NOT recommend to stay here.
