Room was clean, spacious and in decently good condition. Plenty of onsite parking. Shops and restaurant a short walk / drive away. Depending which side of the motel your room is at, expect some construction noise throughout the day - house / motel being built next door. Tough luck if you like to sleep-in in the morning.

Service was great, very warm welcome and assistance. Room was good quality and clean. Paper thin walls though, could hear the next door TV and people talking through the bedroom wall as clear as day. Made it difficult to sleep. The traffic noise from the road also disrupted the sleep of those in the main room.

This motel was in a great location. We travelled with a baby and whilst they did not have a cot available there was ample room to have our travel cot. Also even though on the main drag, there was no road traffic noise. We were in room 8. The staff were also very accommodating ensuring we had a downstairs room. Happy to recommend.

The Motel was a good option for us for one night. The room allocated was clean and had tea coffee facilities available with fresh milk… the actual bed was comfortable but could only be accessed from one side as it was against the far wall. The fan and toilet seat needed attention and the curtains could use an update. For the price this Motel was in reasonable condition.

The manager on the weekend was a grumpy chap. I offered to explain to him my issues but he wouldn’t listen and kept checking the room. I naturally thought I would have a double bed even though I was on my own. The room was to be on the ground floor but it was still about 4 steps up to my room. Not suitable for anyone who can’t walk up them easily. The toilet seat was broken. Also the folder about the accommodation was so hard to find. It was in a black folder on a shelf beside the bed. Because I couldn’t find I couldn’t get the tv to work but the manager showed me there’s an extra TV switch beside the bed. But I was leaving so the information was not useful to me. The room had apparently been recently renovated but the toilet is facing a wall which is only a few inches in front of the knees when sitting. If anyones got knee or back pain or if they are over weight the set up is definitely not suitable. I said to him the toilet should be turned around and his remark was that, it won't be happening. The cleaning lady was so lovely. I’d spilled my cup of tea on the bed but she changed it with a smile. We chatted and she said the market across the road was worth a visit. She was lovely.
