The room was tidy and clean enough. The staff were lovely and very helpful. A toaster would have been great as well as bigger pillows on the beds. The sofa bed wasn't the best, even for a child.
I stayed here for 4 nights and found it to be very clean and tidy. Room was a good size and had a comfortable bed and arm chair. I appreciated the heater to keep the room warm on the cold winter nights. Very close to the town with a shopping centre close by. I would happily stay here again.
The motel was functional and clean. A good deal for $135 p/n. The woman (Diana) who was running the place was very nice , helpful and efficient.

First of all communication was great and staff went out of their way to help. The unit was very clean and well presented. However it is bit dated and I found it a bit too small in the bathroom, toilet for someone of my height and build. The area was quiet and the bed was comfortable. Overall a good place to stay and I would use again.
