The Staff were amazing. We checked (11pm. was at Mackay hospital with a family member) in late and they called us to ensure we were ok. They asked if there was anything they could help with and I replied, some food left in our room and 2 beers would be great. They left 2 wraps and 2 beers in the fridge which was awesome. I would definitely recommend this stay. Thank you again to the staff. Kind Regards, Geoff & Julie

Very outdated, expensive for the facility. Counter staff friendly, however clear there has been little to no reinvestment into the facility for a long time. Would recommend passing this one up.

There were brown stains on the towels and doona, carpets were stained, limited PowerPoints, room smelt like a public toilet, half used cake of soap in shower, cockroaches crawling around, aircon didn’t work properly, shower was very small, no blankets for single beds. Wouldn’t recommend at all. If I could give less stars than 1 I would.

This is, hands down, the most welcoming and friendly motel that we have had the pleasure to stay at. It is not modern and trendy. It is clean, well maintained, most comfy bed and the pressure in the shower is excellent. We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this hotel. Give them a call and book it.
