Mark

Liked: Room comfort
The room was okay for a budget hotel but there was an overwhelming smell of air freshener. However, I did feel comfortable in the motel and quite enjoyed my stay. I did find the reception staff member/manager - short, abrupt, unfriendly and impatient to be frank. Something which would be a reason why I wouldn't stay here again. The location was excellent.

The location was walking distance to the shopping centre and to the town centre. Bed was comfortable and room was clean. Fridge leaked through a seal that needs to be replaced and the hotel not as modern as some but for a good bed close to CBD highly recommend

A couple of things that would have made our stay more enjoyable in the future. 1) Parking bays are far too narrow 2) At night, external lights are left on - for safety etc naturally - but these shine into the room and there isn't a way of blocking this out! 3) The shower area has no door for privacy

Wendy

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
There was a good bed and the room was large. The staff were friendly but I had to go to reception to pick up my breakfast in boxes and take back to room. The water pressure was ridiculously poor to the point that I couldn't rinse my hair properly. I was in a Budget King room which faced an untidy parking lot on one side and a poorly maintained wall on the other side. Maybe the rooms on the other side of the building have a better outlook but my side was depressing and a little scary as I was travelling on my own. I felt as if I was in a ghetto.
