Clive, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We received a very warm welcome from Megan and her team. In the evening we ate in the hotel's restaurant. We chose the lamb shanks (delicious) and the panna cotta dessert. We had a breakfast of croissants, coffee, fruit juice and cooked items from the buffet. Our checkout was friendly and efficient.

George, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Property doesn't have central air and a bit outdated. It was very stuffy and hot the day we checked in.
Alice, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Just an place to overnight enroute…

A big highway-frontage hotel that’s okay but a bit tired, and lacking air conditioning. Rooms big but tired, and the glasses were filthy (I’d say not used in months). However, the restaurant was quite good, but give the buffet a miss and go a la carte. Big Asian group in the night we stayed, plus lots of highway noise.
Richard, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Check in was easy, receptionist was were helpful, room was clean and spacious Would definitely use again
Robert, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Not a pleasant night…

Room has funky smell of damp, it’s smells, aircon doesn’t work sheets and room are worn out.

Typical one night motel.

A good motel for an overnight stay, although a bit tired and outdated.
