When I decided to stay, they claimed there was free internet. Suddenly, you only get 600MB, and then suddenly, there is no internet at all. It is very slow, and even your phone doesn’t work. This is a scam—they call it free internet! ‏ and also the sink in the bathroom is constantly leaking, and you also have to ask for plates bowls, iron and toaster. Don’t recommend long stays

There was no toaster in the room. Nor was there any crockery and the only cutlery was 2 teaspoons! There were 2 cups and 2 glasses, but that was it. We had bought food with us to eat in the room but were forced to eat out...even for breakfast! Just as well my husband bought his own bowl/spoon so he could have his cereal. A very poor show, indeed. Also, there was no remote control supplied to the room for the air conditioner. I had to get down on the floor to read the controls to work the damn thing. There was a constant noise in the bathroom like someone had left a tap running in another room (or a running toilet) but was not heard from the bedroom so that was ok, I guess. The crappy shower curtain did nothing to improve our stay, either, as the glass door had obviously been broken and a quick, shoddy repair was needed. Knowing all this, I don't think we will stay there again. Not much money had been spent and it was in serious need of a modern upgrade. Cheap operators out to make a quick buck don't impress me at all. Overall, I give this hotel 2 stars out of 5.

I was here for family reasons (basically the usual motel I used to stay at is being turned into apartments) so I stayed here. It's functional & clean. Not super keen on the placement of the mirrors in the bathroom (never keen on 'opposite the dunny'. Plenty of space (the rooms are big) & the only other issue I had was I had to remove the shelf in the fridge to get a lemonade bottle in.
