    Not one thing.

    Motel very run down. Scone was booked out and I needed a room.The room was dirty. The pillow cases had someones hair on them

    6Sergei I.Posted on: 12-8-2025

    Just normal stay overnight

    The room had a new chairs that were poor assembled and were unstable. Our youngest even fell off from one.

    3MaureenPosted on: 10-27-2025

    The young woman on reception was pleasant and helpful. As best I could tell the room appeared to clean.

    The place is in dire need of some TLC, a tidy up externally and renovations internally. The tiles in the shower had chunks out of them and the vanity leaked onto the floor

    Nothing, couldn't wait to leave

    Everything. I felt like it was a place for hookers and junkies.The photos on the advertisement are either very old photos or photoshopped.I didn't get photos of my room unfortunately but I did of the outside for comparison against the photo advertised.

    Toaster only operated on one side the mechanism for holding the bread had moved so it was not possible to place the bread in.

    Good for staying overnight.On the main highway.KFC was across the road.Somehow,we had been allocated beds for 3 people only.We were 4 people.They changed our room on request over phone instantly.Good value for money.Thanks.

    The bathroom was old.Only 2 towels were provided.Overall cleanliness was not very good.

    1EdwardsPosted on: 4-4-2025

    We did not stay as in our opinion the room was unfit for use.. smell, lacking maintenance, etc.. We were offered a second room but it also was well below expectation. We then asked for return of money paid thru booking .com and the young lady at the office said she would let managent know of our request but we have NOT not been contacted from anyone yet except for your request for feedback. Given that we paid money upfront to booking .com and we could not use the room then return of the costs should be made and you could review the property to determine if property meets your requirements.

    The overall property badly needed maintenance an or updating.

    This accomodation is passable for the $$. It is very old but excellent pressure in the shower and plentiful hot water. Unfortunately it’s on the main road so lots of traffic noise. Needs a lot of tlc but we managed ok.

    3KarinaPosted on: 3-26-2025

    Acceptable for $100 per night, dog friendly.

    Very old, very noisy.

    The location

    It’s very old and run out. Rubbish everywhere. It defiantly needs work

    6ColPosted on: 3-3-2025

    Reasonably quiet for it's location on the highway.

    Location was hard to see even though it is on the main road. Hard to see the entrance due to overgrown shrubbery. Thought a truck had hit the building about 10pm. Turns out it was an earth tremor.

    2HannahPosted on: 2-19-2025

    Location was fantastic and easy to find. Liked the code for access was sent to us prior to arriving, making it easier especially for those arriving later tha office hours

    The bed was uncomfortableAircon dripped on doorway step, making it slipperyShower had dirty splash marks that had not been wiped away from previous guest.

    Absolutely disgusting. Negative 100 stars. Don't ever stay here

    Property was filthy, pool was green. Washed dirt off the floor with the shower head. Beds were full of bed bugs, wife and kids got hammered by them. Owner called the police saying we stole a portable air conditioner when it was left in the room, later replied saying he found it but still made a police report. This place needs a visit from the health department as it was totally disgusting. Photos of the property on here are fake.

    2TiarnePosted on: 2-9-2025

    Owner was helpful on the day of arrival.

    Photos are extremely out dated, top bunk railing was held together by 2 screws that went in screwed in. Room was musty, air con did not work at first. Pulled back the quilt to reveal small black things either dirt or bug droppings on sheets (husband kids and I slept on top of the quilt) cockroach on wall when we first walked in. Whole place is overgrown and in dire need of maintenance. Even though you need a code to get in which was goo the door did not lock from the inside, so if my kids were taller they could have easily opened the door and walked out while we slept. We were so excited to use the pool as per the photos however it was a swap and again over grown. When the air con was not working the owner had a portable aircon he lent to us, plugged it in and it made the room smell so bad we had to turn it straight off. We had a group of people with us so 3 rooms in total, the owner sent a very rude message to one of the people in the group from the other room calling us thieves and scumbags for stealing his portable aircon con, called the police all without checking the other rooms to see it was left there. When my husband called him to say did you actually go and look in said room the response was oh crap and he hung up on my husband. We have not heard since. Would not recommend for even a pay by hour motel!
