Office rep was really friendly and helpful since we needed to do laundry and did not have change for machines. We got coins from him and did the laundry

Our unit was nice and spacious with plenty of storage space for bags. Shower had decent pressure and the spa bath was awesome for our son after a long day playing cricket. There were a couple of times where our towels were taken but not replaced or the toilet paper ran out but reception were quick to help when called.

Hi Nick, I will be calm in responding. 1)The Asian lady that checked you in, commented to me immediately afterwards that you have an issue with people from different cultures. That was her impression within 2 minutes of dealing with you. (doesn't say much for as a person does it ?2) The unit you were in, is in fact, one of the most requested units in this complex (from very regular repeat corporate clients).3) We have been in this industry for over 12+ years, and never once have we tried to charge more than the Booking rate with anyone. 4) Most Motel/Hotels will have signage stating that the cooking of odorous food is prohibited. Fish and curry are particularly smelly and are difficult smells to get out of rooms. I personally eat both, but would never cook them in a Hotel Motel unit out of respect for other guests. So, I'm confident I am not raciest.5) Your comments are narrow minded, raciest, and fictitious at best. Are you by chance a fantasy novelist, because your comments reflect that. One of delusional fantasy. 6) We thank you for your feedback and comments, always welcomed and hope you return to your own country soonest.Regards DENNIS ROWLING (Owner).

It was costly for 2 adults and 3 young children under 5. We had plenty of beds than we needed. 2 nights costed nearly 700 dollars. Only 5 g of free wifi? Shouldve have been free for that price. But over all Beautiful stay xx will he back again
Response from Dennis on 6 Dec 2022
Hi Jerzelle, Thank you for your feedback. Why do you book a Two Bedroom Unit (2 x individual Adults & 3 children and then complain about the price after your stay ?? The price is set up front, so you clearly have the option of looking elsewhere before booking... As for Wi-fi. The units have a X cap of GB to spread the load evenly. If you needed more, you just had to ask and we can reset it for Free, In the Unit you had, 5 brand new beds, heat pump, Full SKY TV options, Spa bath, cooking facilities etc. If you can't afford these Motels, please don't book. There are cheaper options out there, just not as good. We did appreciate your stay with us; perhaps next time phone us direct and we can offer a discount... you just have to ask... Regards Dennis.

My daughter and I were impressed right from the start. Rooms were spacious, spotless and inviting. So good to see a kitchen well stocked with pots, pans, cups, glasses, and cutlery. We didn't want for anything. An added bonus was Sky television because we had three small children and it rained the two days we were there, great they were able to watch their favorite programs. The motel was right in town so handy for shopping and picking up last minute items. Our hosts were kind and helpful, we really loved our stay there. Thank you so much. Tash and Maria
