Overall our stay was good it’s old but clean some things could do with an update like the couch. And door was a bit drafty. But good for last minute accommodation and price.
I actually really loved it there. Staff were really lovely, warm and inviting. The pool was lovely. A shame that the hot tub wasn’t working. The room was nice, clean and comfortable.
The room photos need to be updated, they don't give this place justice. Room was clean, modern, spacious and new carpet/facilities. Bed was comfiest I've had in a long while.
The room was clean and tidy. The managers were lovely - could not apologise enough for keeping us waiting to check in even though I had not read the fine print to notify them the day before with our arrival time. They were only five minutes away.

Old fashioned motel.
Old fashioned motel, needs updating but was clean and comfortable. Provided toaster and cutlery but no washing up facilities. Swimming pool very nice with jacuzzi. Unfortunately other residents were loud and partied all night, this wasn’t the motels fault though.
Overall clean and tidy with easy vehicle access and parking. Within walking distance from shops. Good price. Only 2 little issues: 1) the heating didn’t seem to work properly which made the first night’s stay uncomfortable, and 2) you have to negotiate a rather high and wide step into and out of the shower which is a safety hazard on a wet and slippery floor.

The property was fine but for the price I recommend including adult size soap and towel, shampoo and conditioner in the rooms. It was hard to keep the floor clean when the car park was wet and the room was less than 1m from the gravel and mud.

This accommodation is old school and reminds me of the overnight stays when I was a kid travelling with my family. Is almost day it’s vintage!:) Yes, it’s old, with all of its original bathroom, heating/cooling, doona covers ect, and a very tired landscape, but it was comfy & quiet. It was a clean room, with all the basics needed: working tv, comfy bed, ample amounts of blankets & pillows, and great shower pressure! I’d stay here again:)

Just a comfortable convenient stay
I chose this place because it was close to an event I was attending. The room is a little outdated and could definitely do with an update, but the bed was comfortable and the TV worked. Biggest downer was the noisy aircon. I had to turn it off in the end because it was so loud. And unfortunately could hear the aircon in the room next door after it did that. Reception lady was friendly and helpful.
The staff were great in accommodating my late arrival and also my request to change my room, the bad things that happened were thoughtless neighbours who had there tv on loud ALL night and when I changed rooms the next night different neighbours were allowing there kids to run up and down the front of everyone’s rooms screaming with no supervision till almost midnight. Very thoughtless behaviour towards other paying guests.
The air condition did not work, it was very old and run down .No serviced rooms. Dirt driveway and dirt parking outside room so when wet had dirt dragged into room. no internet.
the room was clean.
The room was tiny, bed & 2 seat couch were uncomfortable, no bedside table. Way over priced for what you get. It was clean, very old but clean and housekeeping ladies were lovely. Total disappointment in the room.
