Police called to altercations in other rooms during the night. People hanging around vehicles during the night. Door to my room broken and in the morning a noticeable gap showing daylight through the door jam space.

Good basic accommodation. Aircon (heating) showing age with noise level. Room heat loss evident due to draught from poor sealing front door. Satisfactory accommodation at the price paid.

The rooms were dirty and unkempt used vapes were under the bed The TV did not work, the heater was noisy and falling apart .The towel rails were held together with tape the cupboards did not open-we slept on our coats covering the filthy pillows and linen The place was a glorified homeless shelter.Do not say here if you value your health-and if you choose to ignore this review bring insect spray to deal with the giant cockroaches that lurk along the side and back of the beds.And an added bonus is the open drain in front of your room.

I liked the receptionist I thought the brother's workers where nice. The bed was comfortable. The price of accommodation was excellent. I disliked that the lamp on the left side didn’t work. The toilet at the back leaked. The shower had left over hair in it. The television didn't have a remote. The first draw was broken.

The owner was verbally and physically agressive, I should have called the police. I waited for 45 minutes at the hotel to check in and after his attitude and agression I went elsewhere. To coin a phrase "rat hole"!! behind the trees is old wheels and rubbish, the outdoor setting is an OHS disaster. Do yourself a favour do not stay here!!!

Checked out early it was so bad. Upon arrival at reception l had to call a number and wait 5 minutes before seen. Then was asked to pay an extra $14 in cash as was told wotif did not change the correct rate. The room smelt of smoke and was smoke stained . room was unclean and towels were so old and thin there was no way to dry yourself. This place is a rip-off and is unfit to stay better off staying at a backpackers.

The customer service at this motel was SHOCKING! Stayed one night (out of four). Despite stay being fully paid for, receptionist insisted he had to be paid the shortfall between what the booking site charged and the motel's normal room rate in cash. When contacted by booking site (after speaking to site - Expedia provided great support dealing with this incident), receptionist lied about not knowing about what was going on. Then turned off power to room and took key, told to go to an ATM to get the cash. Recruited a guest in another room (a stranger) to "watch over things in room" (because unable to lock room without a key to get back in) until cash was collected. Was staying another three nights, but left immediately. Motel facilities are worn and in severe need of upgrade. DO NOT STAY HERE!
