Bad wifi, crap parking and the room we were in looked like an old community hall building not the main part of the motel. The room had limited power points and half of the electric equipment was not plugged in due to this. Getting to parking around the narrow driveways provided you will run the risk of damaging your vehicle as visible marks along fences and walls and turning your vehicle there is no room for error.will not stay there again.

It’s a normal motel. Room was large and clean. Had an old microwave and crockery which was nice. The rooms out the back are fine, but not renovated. I had issues connecting to the wifi. Managers tried their best to have it fixed but it didn’t work my whole stay. Pool is pretty average. Expensive breakfast available on site. The best thing about this place is the excellent customer service. The owner/managers went above and beyond and I felt very welcomed.

Clean and spacious. Would stay again.
Single night stay. Key was left in the night safe with easy instructions texted through. Room was clean and surprisingly spacious and well apointed. Driveways somewhat narrow and could be a challange to larger vehicles. Would stay again
