The biggest issue was that the booking through Wotif didn't get processed, but the motel was able to accommodate us. Air conditioner was noisy, but apart from that comfortable.

Not worth the money

We stayed in a family room which was average but you get what you pay for. The reverse cycle was noisy, it sounded like a truck was in the room and the blankets were inadequate for the winter season so it meant no sleep as we either shivered through the night or stayed awake due to the noisy aircon/heater.

Good for one night stay

It was an average motel. Staff seems friendly enough, but facilities are dated. Walls are a bit thin and some areas of the floor creak. When it's windy, there is a banging noise which I didn't figure out where it was coming from. Location wise it was perfect.

Kimberley, Adelaide

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Room comfort

Serviceable, clean, cramped, cheap.

Room was serviceable. Family room but didn't have a bath. 'Kitchenette' consisted of a bar fridge, a microwave, and a kettle, with four mugs and one teaspoon. 'Dining area' was a tiny table (that doesn't seat four) against the wall. Cramped. You get what you pay for, this was cheap, and fine for a short, two night stay, where we barely spent anytime in the room.
