So turned up and there was no power for hours. Was advertised free wifi, couldnt get it to work so called them. The motel roomd are 5 star rated for cyclones so cant get wifi. No problems. Next day get a call from them asking for a $200 deposit as im a local because locals have been punching holes in the walls. They are concrete walls that you can't even get wifi through.

I had two rooms, the first room they checked me into was furnished in 1800’s, The second room was better, rooms smell musty/ damp, so they have the ceiling fan on all the time, air con worked ok, the bed was good, pillows need replacing, Irish staff was really nice.

Very basic but clean. Arrived after hours was given instructions to get in prior to arrival & had no issues. Would’ve liked more milk supplied in the fridge but supplies are a bare minimum in most motels these days which can be an issue with out of after hours arrival & leaving.
