Staff were very welcoming and room was fine for a stop over but not accom I would want to stay longer than that. Carpet quite stained and limited to very little crockery and cuttlery (one platic teaspoon and 2 knives). Very noisy fridge, old air con but worked well and good shower.

Reception gentleman was very pleasant and welcoming and checkout was fine also. However the motel is in need of renovation. It still lives in the 60's. The decor is dated and the bathroom facilities need a complete makeover. The lounge chair is impossible to climb out of and the mattress is hard. We took our own pillows so can't comment on those. Outside has awful old seats and pot plants and the doorway area had dust, dirt and leaves everywhere. It was alright for a one night stay but I will find an alternative next time I think. It was fairly clean but the hand basin should have been replaced a long time ago, along with the toilet suite. The restaurant is closed Friday, Saturday and Sunday but you can order breakfast in your room.
