Easy parking. Had to wait for owner to book us in after ringing the number on the door. We booked online but it wasn't in the computer.She blamed her husband.It was supposed to be a deluxe queen room.The room was shabby.The bed was only double.Sheets were dirty.The door to the bathroom wouldn't slide so the light from the shed behind shone in at 6:00am.Wifi and Foxtel advertised but apparently hadn't worked for a month. Breakfast was frozen bread to toast and had to sit in a dark dingy room to eat it.The staff we spoke to said owner would ring to discuss unhappy stay but didn't hear from her.It was the worst place we have ever stayed in..Avoid at all cost.

The property could do with some TLC. Black mould in the bathroom was an issue & needs urgent attention as this is a health risk. The smoke detector had been removed with only the base on the ceiling: it is a legal requirement to have an operational detector in motel rooms. The motel was quiet & staff obliging.

The motel was suitable for one night stopover - breakfast was included although dining room didn't open until 8.00am so if needing an early departure breakfast would not be possible (not necessarily a big deal and fortunate that I didn't need to leave till after 8.00am to get to next destination). Breakfast was a typical serve yourself but certainly sufficient. Dining room looking a little sad with ceiling lining looking like it needs replacing. The room generally clean however di notice what appeared to be German cockroaches mainly in bathroom (remise of me not to mention to staff in the morning).

We had a room with a bunk which squeaked loudly with any movement and stopped us from sleeping. We could hear the noise of another bunk squeaking next door all night long too. There was underwear left in bathroom when we arrived so obviously hadn’t been cleaned thoroughly. Room smelt very musty. Breakfast options super limited. We will never go back!

In a quiet area with easy parking. It was very hard to get the water temperature to a comfortable level in the shower.

The Tap on the Bathroom Vanity was loose. It needed 2 hands to alter the water temp. Tap was stiff to turn on & sometimes ended up with a huge blast of water that splashed on floor & clothing. Very difficult with Arthritic hands.

This property is a few kilometres away from the main part of the city with no nearby restaurants but you can get delivery. Partially renovated but needs more finishing touches the carpet was very stained and the outside was not cleaned. Get what you pay for.
