The room was very clean. My room had 2 reverse cycle air conditioners that didn't work but had had a wall panel heater fitted which worked but not enough to warm the room. TV reception on Channel 7 anyway (to watch the football) was intermittant losing signal and/or sound on a regular basis. Overall it's a budget priced Motel and as that it is a very good place to stay. I would stay there again.
