Basic but good

Has everything you need if you're after a quick, short stay. Staff was friendly and service was good. Basic setup. It got the job done for a quick stay. Not a three and a half star in our eyes, I think it should be a cheaper stay.

Based on the photos I thought I was getting a bargain but I wasn't... It is a typical old cheap motel that is poorly maintained and smells of cigarettes. On arrival our room didn't have towels or toilet paper! You get what you pay for I guess.... in retrospec I wish I spent a bit more. Also worth noting, their web site says 3.5 star... which is laughable.... 2.5 at best.

Manager very friendly helpful and polite Building is too old and in need of urgent renovation looks and feels back in the 1960´s Very noisy due to traffic, refrigerator too , had to turn it off, Room does not have ventilation and smells like an old closed up warehouse of antiques furniture I had lo check out after one night stay, could not sleep more than 2 hours as I had to open the windows and door to get fresh air but the noise became unbearable. Television must be from the 70´s old and off color Could not use the toaster because it was badly rusted The best part was THE PARKING AND THE FRIENDLY MANAGER. i WILL never GO BACK TO THAT MOTEL

Run down motel with unfriendly owners. Found live cockroaches in my room beside bedding. Also 6 months after staying here they charged my credit card $800 for no reason so had to cancel my card and do a chargeback to stop them doing more unauthorized charges. Very dishonest people.

Suspicious residents

Had drug involved people seem living permanently next door. Party and verbal abuse very late at night. We stayed 9 nights but room was only made up twice. The very last day had no hot water for shower. It’s such a shame as the location of the motel could not have been better.

A reasonable but small older motel unit. Friendly proprietors, air-con, microwave. Walking distance to the lake. I understand the new owners are in the process of renovating the units.
