At first look not confident I had chosen well but the room was clean, it was quiet and motel was family orientated. Families staying with their kids and pets which was reassuring. Staff were helpful and friendly.

We would never stay there again. Room was dirty. Rubbish on landing outside of our room. Carpet on outside stairway filthy and seemed to be permanent unsavoury residents which made us feel unsafe. Rooms when we arrived were advertised for $99.00. We paid over $150
To be honest someone would have to pay me to stay there again. It is not often that I take this much time to review.

It’s very clean & reception staff are friendly. However it’s very dated & not at all sound proof. Could also do with some new beds.

Quick Stay
The Motel was aged but OK for what we needed - a bed in the middle of the night and a hot shower next morning. Graham was more than accommodating, very helpful and friendly.

The office staff were very friendly.
The room was exceptionally clean, the housekeepers do an amazing job. The price was very reasonable, and free breakfast was a bonus. Apart from the traffic noise which is expected being on a main road, the place and service is great.

Walls are that thin you can hear the person in the next room. Road noise as well. Room had paint peeling off the walls,
On a good note, they welcome dogs.
