Pros +
- Exceptionally clean for a motel. The owners were very friendly. Easy parking and great to have a convenience store across the road.
- Accessible room. Super large with large bathroom. Good shower. All amenities & equipment provided for a short or long stay.
- Liked the accommodating owner who informed us of night roadworks outside the facility and gave us the opportunity to leave and have money refunded.
Cons -
- Road works that made accessing the motel difficult at times. Road works went until 11.00pm so not ideal when you want to get a good nights rest. Being located on the main road did make it difficult to sleep due to the large trucks going past.
- Besides the nightly roadworks which the facility owner had no control over, all good.
- The queen bed was a bit hard and rustly.

The queen bed was a bit hard and rustly.
Clean and spacious
No air conditioning and it was very hot!! There was a fan, but that just blows warm air around
We have stayed at the Phoenix numerous times and it never disappoints. Friendly accommodating staff, clean facilities with all essential needs.
Clean, comfortable, tidy, private, fully equipped for cooking a meal, great location to walk to restaurants, supermarket. Will definitely book again!
Spa bath was lovely, unit was clean, was good to have a TV in both bedroom and lounge and also great options for smaller or bigger rooms. Staff very friendly and had everything you needed there. Night and day right across road for any essentials.
The road noise but it is on a main road.
we loved everything about it the hot water was fantastic beds were lovely and soft, it right next door to the main road, and there lots of traffic but you never heard it much.We stayed there last Christmas..Daynnight just across the road they have lovely meals .c u in a 11 months
We loved everything.
Excellent, really spacious, clean and comfortable.
Nothing, it was great!
Double glazing & general setup of kitchen items.
Enclosed fence on entrance side of property.
Great location, clean, comfortable beds
Location good for surrounding area.Good clean. Plenty of space.
Noise from traffic. Just not use to it.
Helpful host - we arrived very late and he made sure we could access the room. The heater was on and it made the end of a long day much easier. Lovely chairs to watch TV
There’s a main road to the side but aside from the odd truck rumble we didn’t notice it
Comfy bed /kitchen/lounge chairs. Unit 2 roomy. All necessary appliances. Very clean.
Fan in shower room not great for steam removal.
Very comfortable bed and a nice big room. Our room was upstairs so had a nice view of the street. Double glazed windows. Excellent

I've stayed a couple of times for work. It's always clean and tidy. The rooms are also very quiet when you see the amount of traffic that goes past on the main road
Very comfortable and very clean. Felt like home away from home. Manager Richard was so thoughtful putting the heater on and lights on for us after we had a long day away.
We could not find any dislikes
The owner was very helpful and accommodating! The rooms very clean, spacious and comfortable. Very happy for sure!
The rooms were quite warm because of the hot day, and they could do with a heat pump to make the room a little more comfortable temperature wise. It was quite warm during the night.. Even with the standing fan on.But not a bad dislike.. Just personal.
