Very clean room also the bed was so comfy, all toiletries were supplied were to the high standard, I can only comment of 1 problem at the motel and that is, the car park and outside of the rooms is very dirty that needs to be cleaned daily as there were ear bud sticks(used) also teeth cleaners and just basic everyday rubbish like cigarette butts, the workers need to more aware of their surroundings for cleanliness so when clients are not bringing dirt into the rooms.

Great stay, would recommend!
We were upgraded to a 2 bedroom newly renovated unit/apartment and it was great! We had everything we needed. In spite of the proximity to the main street it wasn’t noisy - we were there on a Sunday night. The people in reception.

Room was clean and well presented. Didn't like the automatic check in, especially being asked to take a photo of the room code. (Assumes everyone has a suitable phone). Otherwise a comfortable stay.
