One of the nicest motels we have stayed in. I have no complaints at all. Good service, nice clean rooms. The showers were great as was the A/C. Coffee, tea etc, all in the room. Only suggestion is to at least have ice trays for the mini-fridge or a community ice machine.

Be careful no views
Check in was OK until I went to the room. There was no private balcony or patio as per the room inclusions on the web. Had a long debate with front desk who claimed the motel style walkway outside was it!! She couldn’t understand my point - and kept repeating the same mantra. Just because it says so on the web doesn’t mean it’s true. Eventually they “upgraded “ to what was supposed to be provided anyway. There are also no view’s whatsoever anywhere in the hotel. The web images are incredibly misleading.

Birthday treat
We had room 510. The bed was very comfortable, it was nice to have the balcony, the shower head & hot water was good, having 2 lounge chairs was nice. The pool was very clean & lots of chairs/lounges & umbrellas for some shade. I felt there was some wasted space in the room in that there could have been a couple of benches where there were only power points on the wall. I had to have my suitcase on the floor, as there was just the one rack for another bag. The fridge would be a challenge for a small person as it was high up in the cupboard. A coffee pod machine was nice to have, but there was not a milk frother/heater to heat up milk, so had to have it black. The location is great, you can walk everywhere. Have stayed there numerous times & would stay again.

The room was exceptionally clean. The arch window feature and recess in the wall were really special. The bathrooms were surprisingly clean as well. The location is walking distance to everything. Bed was comfy, the blankets were warm. There was a good sized TV in the room as well as aircon. We really enjoyed our stay.
