Only if you're desperate
I had a late arrival and appreciated the motel leaving the room key in a convenient place. The bed was rock hard, paper thin walls and ceiling meant I could hear everything in adjacent rooms, mold on the bathroom ceiling, stains on room wall, towel rail broken. Shabby and badly in need of a proper refurbishment.

I’ve stayed here a couple of times and it’s in a nice tree-lined street but close to Dickson, Braddon and the CBD. Unless your room is next to one occupied by especially noisy people it’s a pretty quiet area. The staff are friendly and helpful. The rooms and beds are comfortable and clean and spacious.
