The motel is clean and the staff are friendly. They were busy when we stayed and we had to wait two hours for our room. They should have messaged us to let us know that they were running late. Some cleaners did not turn up which caused the delay. Our room was cleaned in a rush. They forgot to leave bath towels and a sheet for the sleeper couch. There was only one towel between the four of us. No soap in the bathroom but there was shampoo and conditioner. It is a good motel, they just need to improve their communication. The staff were friendly and apologetic. It’s a nice quiet area and the room was comfortable.

One of the best motels I’ve stayed at, nice modern facilities, loved having the little garage for my car under the room, separate bedroom with own AC, ease of check-in was impressive. Only negative thing I could say is the kitchen utensils weren’t all properly clean when I arrived, but some were and were fine to use so still 9/10 overall.

I am unable to rate this property as I had not received the code to get a key. I was virtually stranded with my two young grandchildren and then had to find somewhere else to stay.

Easy book in and key collection. Room warm when we arrived. Pet friendly although not sure if there's grass for pets apart from the nature strip. Stayed one night so found the property very convenient.

No overview of bathroom in the 2 bedroom unit when booking. The bathroom was old, floor tiles were dirty and it had a small. Other rooms options within this motel where the bathrooms are photographed are renovated and clean. I did not expect an old and dirty bathroom for the price of this room.
