Website needs updating, stuff listed on there was not in the room eg. Iron and ironing board in every room and we had to ask for one. Noisy shower pipework. No handle on shower door. Mirrors all smeared and greasy, couldn't see in them clearly, as was the shower glass. For a five bed room there were only two eating bowls and four plates. Crockery and cutlery needed cleaning before using. Stove top rusted through. Fridge wobbly only had three feet. Noisy stairs. Needs more lounge seating, two person couch for a five bed room. Walls were filthy and need painting. Light shade over lounge area dusty as. Service poor, reception never maned, doorbell and phone outside reception don't work. Could smell cigarette smoke in our room from others smoking. Soap dispenser in bathroom didn't work or the ones in the shower. Can see where a washing machines been removed, all plumbing still visible. Wouldn't recommend this motor inn to anyone to stay at.

The Property Manager was excellent, but the motel units are extremely tired and need upgrading. The bathrooms in particular were not up to standard. It is a good location.

I didn't like outside the window looking down at rubbish and old rubbish looking bicycle or the water damage that looks like it is getting moldy in the bathroom. The wallpaper on the other side looked water stained. The TV kept lagging and cutting out. The bed was comfy though.

On our arrival the gentleman at the reception desk was not friendly or co-operative at all, told us to contact their receptionist by phone and sort out the matter with her, unfortunately her attitude was worse than the gentleman at the reception desk and had to contact Wotif to sort out the matter of us wanting to leave a day earlier. The property had no dishwashing liquid so we could wash our dishes, the room was not cleaned or beds made the next day, no WiFi password given, no one maning the reception desk the whole weekend, the list could go on. I will not stay there again or recommend to anyone else.

Property was very out dated - unfortunately the room hadn’t been vacuumed and the smell of previous people’s cooking left the room stinky.

Ok for cheap accomodation. We were disappointed that there wasnt a restaurant/bar onsite as advertised and we had to find a restaurant for dinner instead, although found an amazing italian restaurant 15min walk from the motel. Staff rating only marked as average as reception was unattended when we came back as room wasn't quite ready when we first arrived and had to use phone to ring number to get key off cleaning staff member who didnt speak much english, so couldn't answer any of our questions. Main receptionist was nice and helpful though.

The accomodation was average. The whole place looked a little run down and tired. While they claimed to have Reception open until 9pm it was closed. Had to phone a number which then told me I had phoned out of hours and to phone again between 9am and 9pm. It was 7pm ?? I wouldn't stay here again.
