Staff were fine. Essentially, the place was clean and bed was good. Reasonable for the price. However, the room very tired and smelt a little. Bird poos on the exterior kitchen window ledge.

Room was suitable. Good facilities to be self sufficient. Has a fan and no air conditioner. We booked because it had a pool. It closed at 5pm and we could not use it. It was also supposed to be open at 9am but it was not open when we left at 10am.

This property is nothing like the photos, it was filthy beyond words. The grounds un kept, we had chicken bones outside our door, beer bottles out front, the place did not look like it had been cleaned in a long time. The pool was covered and appeared like it had not been used for quite some time. Spa was the same with cloudy water.
Lounge.
Pool area.
All skirtings thick with dust and dirt.
Dirty stained sheets.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This was the worst motel we have ever seen. We actually didn't stay and had to quickly book another motel which was hard last minute. The place was filthy, and the room which hadn't been cleaned was not habitable, the receptionist didn't speak any English so had someone on a speaker phone trying to organise all the arrivals. We don't think this this motel should be allowed to operate.

There are alot of hanging cobwebs from the Bedroom ceiling. One of the windows in the bedroom won't close. The curtain netting has mold on it. Wall plug outlet in bedroom is faulty and dose not work. Wall plug outlet switch has almost popped out so we didn't dare use the TV. Over all.... A very unsafe room for a family with little kids.
