Very clean and comfortable room for a bargain price. Bit of noise late at night from inconsiderate guests and hotel patrons but that can happen anywhere and was only brief.

Just a one night stop over but will stay here again for sure. It is at the budget end of the market price wise, but the room was large and clean, old but good bathroom, no problems at all. I travel to Newcastle 4 or so times a year and which I came across this place sooner! Had a beer and dinner at the pub which was great value.

Room was spotless, staff was amazing. Air conditioner needs to be fixed because, we couldn’t regulate the air, it was the only negative that can be easily fixed. I would love to have microwave oven in the motel just incase I need to make my food warm.
