The Tartan Motel is very central and easy to access. It was clean and tidy and the cooler worked well. A comfortable bed and plenty of pillows. It has a very tiny shower space but we were able to work with that.

Unique to the motel was that it was convenient to where I was going. There was a constant banging sound throughout the night. The wind was strong and was blowing on a gate that i suspect was making the sound. The television had limited channels to choose from. The smoke alarm was open and not sure if it was working. Dirty atop lights and in bathroom light cover. I would have appreciated a face washer too. Please take these criticisms as constructive, so as to improve.

The room was immaculate. The removal of the single bed and replacing it with a smaller sofa made the room feel quite large and ‘roomy’. The cupboards were very well equipped. I really enjoyed my stay and will happily stay again.

This hotel is very basic. It desperately needs a full over haul. Years of grime build up. Unfortunately Power outage due to storms …no one at reception but through texting manager organised a torch to be delivered. Power back on at 6am so spent a very dark night with no electricity . Needs a generator maybe. Bed not too bad but bed cover and blanket so old and cover on old couch was just awful. Kettle clean thankfully. Plenty of hot water when power back on. $139 I expected basic but not this awful. I have requested some refund as I feel this would show some acknowledgment of the bad situation but as yet have had no answer. Not sure Wotif should be advertising this place. Seedy feeling….

Room was extremely basic and of poor standard. Windows with net screens missing, big holes under door for insects to enter room. Fridge filthy. No microwave or other cooking facilities. No hairdryer provided. Shower very poor and only suitable for short people. No bulbs in bedside lamps. Very poor standards overall, especially for price paid. On a positive note, nice location in town to go for wander.
