Hosts are the most helpful ever. The room and the bathroom room was clean and well equipped. So is the kitchen area,
A chair would have been nice so the two of could sit across the table while eating.
We enjoyed our stay a lot.
Had some difficulty finding a hotel that allows pets but my well trained dog with his own bed was welcomed here, even though we were super late to check in. Thanks again. Was a great place stop to relax for the night after travelling all day.
The place is clean and i like the pre call prior check in . Furniture a bit out dated but tidy. The only thing i dont like was a bit noisy due to the outside heat pump exhaust

Excellent value for money!
Excellent value for money. Comfy. Warm. Had all we needed for a night stopover before an early checkout to the airport.
Service was above and beyond. Helpful and friendly - nothingness a bother.
Very nice people running it. Very close to public transport. Floors need a deep clean feet turn black just walking around room. Very unsafe cook top ontop of a microwave at eye level. No oven even though pictured and says on website there is one.
Best customer service I have ever came across! Such lovely people. Location of the motel was perfect for me and would definitely recommend it to others.

It is an older property showing signs of wear but was clean and tidy.good location .
This lodge suites to those who can appreciate anything, it looks old but I’m grateful for it, it has everything we need , I love the service , the room and everything. I will definitely come back here . I highly recommended this lodge ♥️
Family runs the motel, friendly and lovely. When having lack of soaps or toilet rolls, they respond quickly.
Kitchen floor was needed to clean better a little.

We checked in late and the owner made it a hassle free easy stay. Beds were comfy and had a well equipped kitchen only thing I would mention that the property is looking a little tired and dated. But this was reflected in a good price . Overall would recommend for a brief lay over or bed while you await a flight
Affordable property. Kitchenette well equipped (toaster, microwave, toaster-oven, etc)
Air Con didn't work but was not a big deal as a fan was provided.
Only one soap provided.
Mould on the ceiling in the bathroom.
I didn't find any sports or movies on the TV Channels.
But this is a budget motel so overall I was happy, the hosts were very nice, and I would stay here again if the price remains competitive.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Very disappointed on cleanliness. All the dishes in the cupboard were all dirty. And there was no dishwashing liquid to clean the dishes. Bins weren’t emptied. Bathroom had lots of mould on the walls.
Didn’t like anything it’s very poorly managed and maintained. Towels mixed matched seen better days. Pillows old well used by date. Aircon wasn’t working properly, ceiling in the bathroom and toilet full of mildew. My husband booked it didn’t see old reviews. The managers didn’t care bad reviews of three months or more nothing changed. We asked them to make the beds came back after 4 hours room was as we left it. It’s a waste of time writing reviews
