Mould all over the bathroom walls and the room was so filthy. We got moved to another room which was slightly cleaner. After a long flight we decided to just sleep. We left the next day and requested a refund. People drinking and partying next door at 10am! Do NOT recommend

will not visit here again

the beds were comfortable, that's about all. There was only 1 glass int he cupboard and no staff to request a second glass. All the window sill were dusty. There was no security screen on the bathroom window. We did not shower as the Lino on the show floor had come loose from the wall, and it was dirty. Although it advertised a playground, the swings were broken. The pool was dirty and half full.

Property was awful from the beginning. Broken window out the front, dirty stained carpet in the entrance, curtain all ripped, aircon falling off the wall where it was held on by tape, fluffy white mould in the microwave, chewed hole in the carpet, blood stain on the doona cover, mouldy shower curtain, bed hard as a rock. Didn’t like anything about it.

I found this motel to be comfortable, clean and inexpensive. It is an aged motel that could use a reno but it served me well and I was able to walk into town and enjoyed my stay. The WiFi didn't work but I was advised this could be the case. I would go back again.

The people who were next to my room parked over the line so I could barely squeeze my car in. Not ideal when you have a hire car. When I arrived and until after midnight two males sat outside my room smoking and drinking booze. At one stage they were playkng very loud music. It would have been nice to get more than 6 hours sleep.

Disliked: Cleanliness
We checked in at twelve past two she wasn't there. When we rang she was running an errand. Our room was open. She didn't give us a time when she be back. My partner rang her. She was at the bank apparently. On a Saturday at 2.30pm? We didn’t have the keys for 40 minutes. She dropped them round with some milk but only cause we where planing on going out soon. When i used the bathroom because its close too the shower i noticed a few long stray hairs on the floor. Then right in the corner of the shower stall i noticed a big chunk of hair in the corner. So not impressed. After the way we where recieved i didn’t bother to say anything. I hygienically cleaned it up myself. I understand basic cheap rooms but i expect it too be clean. I have no idea how it was missed.
