They have dodgy comp rent rooms on their behalf. They charge you more then the original price they tell and withdrawl even more then they say they charged. Then when i try to cancel they say go through the comp you book with but when i exp i can't so im asking you to do it she played dumb and then tell me it's not her problem and hung up on me. Rings me back today and when i answer she hangs up. Pathetic. I will be making sure i air it on every site possible you are thieves and your hotel is nothing but filth and your service is terrible and never to use your services. I'll even tell them about the hidden cameras fond in the rooms

False advertising, hotel does not reflect pictures. Room old, dirty and smelly. Holes in the wall, stained chairs, bathroom mouldy, pillows and bedding yellow. Absolutely the worst motel we have ever stayed in. Not worth half the price paid.

Desperately needing care to details. Grass growing in spouting, widows dirty. Couldn’t use the dirty shower. Television was so old that could not view many channels. Had to ask for wifi code and wifi was poor. Car park was dirty and the whole place needs a refit.

Made a big mistake booking this motel, room not as in photos, very dated and poor condition. We returned to motel late afternoon to find the cleaners had removed used towels but did not leave any replacements, the reception was unattended so we rang the number on door only to be told he could do anything as he was not on site, reception was still not open upon checkout, so still no towels.

Average, but did the job.

Stay was ok, Reception was closed upon arrival (3pm Sunday), even though stated it's open. No Foxtel and TV was a little dodgy, unable to turn on or off with remote. Need to manually use the power button. At least it was close to Hospital and Supermarket.
