Two stars for a few reasons, but particularly relevant for if you’re looking to stay once normal reception is closed. Upon our stay we were arriving late (approx 9:45pm), we checked that they had after hours reception, which they did and prior to arrival I was sent a text saying I had to fill out a form online to pre-check in, as it was after hours, which I did and received a reference number.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We stayed at short notice and couldn't be happier with the on line booking process and follow up phone calls received from the property. An older style motel but that didn't detract from the cleanliness of our Queen room (2x Qu Beds) along with comfy mattresses, all the mod cons required for a comfortable stay. Undercover parking out the front of your room providing easy access for unloading suitcases etc. Quiet night's sleep even though the plane flight path appeared close by. Just a short drive to Tweed Heads central and our visit to Twin Towns Resort. Use motels frequently throughout our travels here and overseas and thoroughly recommend this motel. Would definitely stay again.
