Budget by name and budget by nature
The office is not manned you have to ring when you get there and you are told what room to be in and it is open.The first thing we noticed outside was a hand made polypipe ash tray overflowing with cigarette butts . It had been raining so they were all floating in the water. The front door also had butts on the ground beside it.We are non smokers so were jot impressed. There was no plug for the handbasin and the coffee cups were cardboard takeaway.Whilst the bed was comfy the room was small. The tv diid not work so we rang and someone did come and fix it. The floor tiles in the bathroom were a swirly colour so you could notvreally tellnifvthey were clean. The bathmat was frayed. Ifvyou are a single male tradie you might be happy here but we were glad it was only one night. Compared to the other 5 motels we stayed in on our trip the price was not budget at $120 per night. I booked it because it had a laundry and free wifi. It was a fair way out of town but no traffic noise apart from the truckie in the room next door.

The bed was comfortable. The water pressure in the shower was good. The room was very old. The floor was worn. The ceiling was patched up but unpainted.There wasn't even ceramic cups for a coffee. There were paper cups. Overall the property is very old. At the price we paid there was far superior properties just up the road.. There was no one in reception at 3 o'clock we had to check in by phone. Very unwelcoming.

I got what I paid for. Tidy, outdated, but it was cheap. No real complaints. Just don’t understand why Australia has to have such cheap and I’ll looked after accomodation and facilities.?
