Property was clean and in a convenient location. Staff in the office were friendly. Unfortunately there was noise from other units and a constantly barking dog. Barbecue facilities and a breakfast option would have been a bonus.

We just needed somewhere to overnight during our trip and this place was fine. The room had all the expected amenities and it was clean, spacious and surprisingly quiet. There was ample parking, the Wifi was good and the property was within walking distance of multiple restaurants and a Woolworths supermarket in the main street.

We were very annoyed about having to park our car 2 blocks away from the motel as there was no parks left at the motel room and I wasn’t the only one

Response from Manager on 2022/10/24
Hi Leisa,Thank you for staying with us. We are sorry you experienced this issue. During busy times our carpark does fill but there is free parking on the street. Usually street parking is in close proximity to the motel. In our 18 years of service here we have not heard of the issue of having to park 2 blocks away. We are surprised to hear this.

Hi Rebecca,I’m so sorry that you encountered some issues with your stay. I’m sorry I was not in the office as your arrival was before 2pm our check-in time, but I believe I still let you in within 5 mins of your arrival. We pride ourselves on our Service and our Rooms, with new staff sometimes things get missed and this was the case on just one of the days on your stay. We also reimbursed you a 50 credit you did not mention and all other items were fixed or replaced as soon as it came to our attention. Kind Regards, Vanessa
