Typical motel with no extra frills. The property didn't even have a microwave which was a bit of a surprise to us. But other than that, it was super convenient with gated parking, proximity to shopping malls and freeways. Definitely recommended.

Spacious rooms including big bathroom with double vanity. Fridge, microwave & washer/dryer made it useful for a longer stay. On-site parking was useful. Near to shops, dining, service station, public transport. I liked the private entrance to rooms.

The bathroom was not bad, but the actual room was dated. The carpet was filthy and was not stretched properly. It had ridges in it which I tripped on when I first entered the room. The bed was only just ok. It certainly needs to be replaced Overall, it was a disappointing story. I’m sorry, but a little bit of money needs to be spent

Our room was spacious and clean and away from the road so it was quiet at night. The bed was very comfortable. Sadly the restaurant was under renovation but we were able to walk to another restaurant nearby for dinner. The staff member who greeted us on arrival was friendly and gave us good recommendations for breakfast venues as they were unable to cater with their restaurant out of action. Very happy with our decision to stay here

The staff were lovely but the room we were in needs at the very least 2 out of 4 of its mattresses replaced it was so uncomfortable. The mattress clunked when you sat on the bed and you could see one side of the queen bed was lower than the other and squished to only a couple of inches thick when laying on it. The shower head was either up against the wall or at its lowest position it couldn’t hold itself up. The hot water ran out after 1-2 showers and you had to keep adjusting the temperature but the last 2 people would have a cold shower. The carpet in the room was bunched up in the centre of the room and there was a loose power point on the wall.

I stated for 3 nights in a family room with a double and 2 singles. The room was spacious, clean. Beds were comfortable. Staff were friendly. The area was quiet, no issues with noise at night either. The train station is conveniently close by and Ubers were always just minutes away. The train line runs direct to circular quay in the city. It was wonderful for our needs and I would highly recommend it. I would happily stay here again.

Check in staff did not charge credit card fee, and took 20 minutes to try and fix. Finally gave up and said would email my receipt which I have not received. Given a single queen bed room when booked a 2 bed double. Office closed and property fully booked so unable to change. VERY Annoying, will never stay there again.
