    • No bowls in the kitchenette for breakfast and when we went to look for someone to ask we were left with a note saying ?call this number for assistance? which is the same note on the window as the day before
    • No smoking ash trays
    • Only enough utensils for one person not two. Pool didn't seem to be open.

    5AmyPosted on: 10-26-2025

    Location was a 10 minute walk to Botany town centre.

    Facilities were quite tired, broken toilet seat, no utensils.

    4RaelenePosted on: 10-9-2025

    Close to family

    Bed and pillows were very uncomfortable. Wouldn't stay here again. Budget is what you pay for

    10QueeniePosted on: 9-28-2025

    Staff was very attentive and helpful. They made sure to follow up on when I am checking in, and inquired whether I require anything (house keeping, tea, milk, etc) during my 2 night stay.

    8SahrahPosted on: 8-15-2025

    Great location, clean, quiet, friendly reception.

    The air pump slats are at an angle that directs air onto the bed (or it feels like that). Perhaps adjust them. This is a small criticism; the stay was comfortable and convenient. I would happily stay there again.

    7TrggirlPosted on: 8-10-2025

    Comfy bed. They are renovating. Glad to get real milk for my tea too. Lovely light room. Staff was helpful and kind. Plenty of parking.

    Just missing an extra blanket and hair dryer and air con. But the small heater worked fine and management grabbed me a hair dryer and another duvet which I was grateful for. Netflix would be great addition.

    8WindelbornkPosted on: 7-27-2025

    Great location, rooms were clean and tidy.

    No laundry facilities available and the hair dryer in our room did not work. No one was available onsite all the time, but we could ring them if we needed to.

    Location was excellent, next to Botany Downs shopping centre, everything right on the doorstep

    The sofa was so smelly it stunk the room out. It was so good otherwise

    10TiffineePosted on: 5-18-2025

    It was in a really good location and was clean, and nicely priced

    1JackiePosted on: 5-14-2025

    Poor - I left and...

    I arrived and it felt very eerie. There was only one car in the whole carpark and lots of the units had their curtains pulled shut despite it being daylight and about 4pm. I had to ring a bell as the reception wasnt open. A guy came and gave me keys to my room. My room had carpet with stains, the bed had a cover on it with stains. It smelt of cigarette smoke and I felt very uncomfortable. My friends were staying down the road at another motel. They came to pick me up for dinner and said it wasnt safe so they moved me out and took me to their motel, so I didnt stay. I rang the next morning to talk to them but they dismissed my concerns and feedback. I would like my money back. The advertising is misleading and false.

    location was great close to botany downs,

    10CalebPosted on: 2-15-2025

    I liked the location and that the staff were super nice xo

    I liked the cleanness of the room amd how comfy the bed was .

    6MariePosted on: 1-25-2025

    Clean, tidy and quiet.

    Room was super hot during the night. Tv did not have any channels.

    4RaymondPosted on: 1-24-2025

    It's walking distance to Botany Downs shopping center where we found Sierra the best coffee cafe, Pak n Save and The Hub where the fresh fish n chips the best, various takeaways also great , it's a very convenient location where everything you want to go to is right there .

    It's a bit run down, carpet is stained and smelly, shower was okay, tv reception was awful, my son had a bad night sleep on a single bed, tap was loose in handbasin on ground floor, shower curtain was not the right size , no air condition, the extractor fan in shower room doesn't work, cockroaches found in the bedroom, kitchen utensils were poor, the money we pay for this place is not worth it at all. Will never book in here ever again.The place requires a major overhaul and the owners are Indian. The staff and service was great but the place was absolutely poor.
