Not having enough cooking utensils and no dish washing liquid. Average motel which I understand because it's a cheap price anyway.

The Manager was lovely. The rooms were very adequate, spotlessly clean and an excellent air-conditioning unit. My only hassle was that there was no iron available. There was on night one, but it disappeared. Parking fabulous and proximity to main roads and shopping excellent.

The room was clean enough. The towels smelled moldy/musty like they weren't dried properly. The shower was small, and it felt like it needed updating. The staff were friendly, and the location was nice for us.

This property is located on a busy road, so lots of road noise. Also, it was not at all clean. The stove top was covered in grease, and the microwave oven had not been wiped out in a long time. I am pretty certain the bedsheets had not been changed since the last guests as we stripped the bed at the end of our stay (we always do this to help the cleaners) there were Lolly wrappers stuffed between the bottom sheet and the end of the bed against the wall. If the sheet had of been changed, these would not have been there. We felt sick after seeing this.
