Best service ever.

We booked for 7 nights. On our second night there was a storm which showed our room had a leak. Once the staf were informed they moved us to another room exactly the same. On our fifth night I got bad news from home and when I told them that we would be leaving a day early, they were so great and offered a credit for the last night and wished us all the best with our situation at home. Absolutely the best service I have ever had from any company whether it was an accommodation or even retail company. Keep up the brilliant service guys, we’ll be back for sure.

I have stayed at this property numerous times. This time on a 5 night stay I was given a room with a very noisy air conditioner. Further, the settings on this air conditioner were very limited. The weather was hot and without air-conditioning because of the noise, the room was very uncomfortable at night. The sink was inoperable because the plug did not engage. VERY DISAPPOINTING this time.

Property was easily accessible with parking options. Took us a while to find the property because of the name “Insignia”. Close to the main highway and budget friendly motel. Place is clean and tidy and has been well attended.
