Stay was excellent as always, however one minor issue is that the tap in the bathtub isn't working properly. We were still able to use the bath as normal, but we had to fill the bathtub with the shower head as the tap on the wall is broken and will need fixing. Only minor issue and we still enjoyed the bathtub as normal. Please ensure the bath tub tap is fixed. ##### James Stayed 1 night in Feb 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Louis Dec 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Clean room ##### Louis Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Helen Mar 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great location for our event.

We booked a room upstairs as we wanted the spa bath. The spa bath was huge but unfortunately we could not get the jets to work. We would suggest a set of instructions. ##### Karen Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Paula May 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities The motel is a bit run down and doesnt look like much from the outside. But the room is large with plwnty of space, balcony, couch, table and chairs, desk and kitchenette. The room walls are very thin and unfortunately we had some very inconsiderate neighbours which let the stay down. The water pressure wasnt great but the toiletries supplied were nice. Walking distance to supermarket and eateries. ##### Paula Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Shelley Jan 11, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service The facility was adequate. When staff was there, they were friendly; but they were hardly ever there. I looked for them several times and they never seem to come in before I left at 11 or 11:30 AM. And they were never there when I came back at 3:30 or 4:30 PM. There is not enough drawer space in the room to unpack in an organized manner. There are not enough electrical outlets for charging my devices. There is no electrical outlet near the bed so I can’t charge my batteries and use my devices while sitting in bed. There is no clock in the room. I know, I have my devices that tell me what time it is. But because I can’t have my devices near me because they have to be plugged in across the room that doesn’t do me any good at night. Also, a couple of the outlets did not work so I had to move plugs to another outlet. They forgot to clean my room on one of the days I was there. There are supposed to be laundry facilities available to customers. I could see the sign on the room where the laundry facilities are located, but my key did not fit in the lock and I could never find anyone in the office to tell me how to access those facilities. I couldn’t find much within walking distance as far as places to eat. ##### Shelley Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2026 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Rochelle Jun 3, 2025 Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The location and size of the room was perfect for a one night stay for a family of five. What was rude was being called after being stuck in traffic saying they were going to close if we didn’t check in by a set time. The. They weren’t even there at check out. Also, milk in fridge was off by a month. Pays to check the small things. No breakfast for the kids as a result. ##### Rochelle Stayed 1 night in May 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Wendy Nov 3, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely unit, really nice that we got upgraded to a spa bath. Just a couple of maintenance needs in the bathroom as the extractor fan doesn't remove the condensation hardly at all and there's grout crumbling out from the tiles. Lovely staff, we feel very well looked after ##### Wendy Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2023 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Brian Jan 9, 2026 Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities Repairs to bathroom gave us a headache. No forks to eat with, TV Sky info said HDMI1 after half an hour of trying it ended up working with HDMI2\. Water pressure in sink was extremely low. 4/10 ##### Brian Stayed 1 night in Jan 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Katherine Jun 26, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Friendly, helpful staff and comfortable, affordable rooms.
