Excellent location. Staff were friendly. Motel needs refreshed and rooms need a good clean. Rooms smell, feel damp and could do with a revamp. Shame as the location is perfect.

Bed was comfortable and the location very handy to the mall - our room was small, probably better for a single person or contact the motel before booking to request a larger room.

The room was very clean, and the heat pump was on to warm it up nice compact room. Parking was a bit tight however once reversed in it was good. there is only one way in and out . the shopping mall was directly across the road so easy access to facilities lots of small restaurants and a McDonald's just along the street. the staff were excellent and provided good information to suit the stay. The main road can get busy with traffic so a little bit noisy at night.

Great room for long stays! The owners are very welcoming and made sure my stay was comfortable. There is daily housekeeping and cleaning. The location is great, very convenient with walking distance next to the Westfield. Easy to get food and amenities. Many parking spaces are available so parking is no problem. Room is clean. Kitchen has all utensils for two people. Pots and pans are also available for cooking full meal. The pan in my room is old and rusty so I requested to change it and the staff has swap me a new pan. Toilet is clean and spacious, shower is hot and good pressure. I had a very nice stay overall and would definitely stay again!
