I was spoken down to when I checked in because I "booked through Expedia". I should have "booked directly with the hotel" After that encounter, I was given a room that had a strong unpleasant odour. A staff member was sent to check it and he insisted I be moved. The new room was very clean. Housekeeping entered my room even though I had my Do Not Disturb sign on the door. Whilst the front desk staff weren't great, the restaurant and maintenance staff that I encountered were wonderful

The hotel room was a good size, but the design of the bathroom was terrible. The toilet stuck in a corner with the sharp edge of the corner vanity impeding in the toilet. This design is not suitable for a larger person or someone with mobility issues. Staff were helpful.

Just want to give a big shout out to the lady on the front desk. Jodie, I believe. Super friendly and great at her job. She allowed us to book out slightly later than usual which really helped our itinerary. Would recommend if you aren't planning to spend a lot of time in a room and exploring Canberra and need a clean and conveniently located motel. Also parking wasn't an issue at all which can be a problem around Civic and suburbs around Civic.
