7.4/10 Good! (796 reviews)
Room very clean with comfy bed and great shower so many positives, but my room was nothing like on the website. Very old. The QR scan on the mirror with motel details and breakfast orders didn’t work as I was wanting breakfast which had been advertised as available but unfortunately wasn’t. Very limited parking available. Overall for my brief stay it was good value for money very clean good shower an an aircon that works

8.6/10 Excellent! (849 reviews)
The carpets desperately need a shampoo. A few more drinking glasses would be useful. The microwave seems like a hazard with lots of exposed rust inside and there are no small sharp knives, just 3 really large serrated knives. Just could be better equipped.
