Our experience

Courteous, confirming our reservation requirements. Unit allocated was quiet and beds very comfortable. Facility located in an excellent location. The beds would benefit from castors to prevent inadvertent slippage on carpet. We did not use the shower but it became very obvious this am that plumbing in wall shared by shower and bedroom requires attention as carpet wet under the bedside table and under and beside the single bed near bathroom door. Also water from basin tends to pool from the right rear area. We attempted to inform reception prior to departure but the office was locked and no staff were visible.

This motel had good and not quite so good. The good was an easy check in then a very comfy bed and great internet. The not so good, the hot water was scalding hot so be careful, the room we had was clean but needed some serious love and update. For the price it was suitable for one night.

Gone are the days when a travelling rep could order a meal and breakfast and stay in. Even though the signage out the front states there is a restaurant. Lacks personality these days. Apart from that, nice place to stay I will be back.

Room was very clean. Shower was good. Check in was smooth and quick. Convenient location to walk into the main commercial area. Unfortunately the bed mattress was very soft and needs replacing. It made for an uncomfortable night's sleep.

I booked a family room but was told on arrival that they didn't have any. The excellent lady at reception didn't quibble and gave us two rooms instead. Great customer service. Thanks.
