I felt it accommodated people who are down and out,the police came the second morning I was there looking for whoever, I just felt a little unsafe, so stayed in my room, until I left. However I couldn’t fault the room, it was very clean, and the lady at the desk was very nice.

Once arrived to the property to check in, they stated that they had double booked. Then proceeded to let us know they had a family room at a much outdated motel. Did not honour the complimentary minibar, no refund offered either.. the absolute kicker was they were still advertising the room as available after we were sent elsewhere.

Very accommodating hosts
Easy to find and easily contactable. When i called reception to request late check-in, happy to help me. The young lad started the process while we awaited a manager. It took all of 5mins. The room was as described; clean, spacious and with the usual amenities. The motel is centrally located with close bites. Thanks for the stay. Appreciated the simple processes.

Comfortable motel
Nice clean room, with recently renovated bathroom. Older style rooms, but quite comfortable. WiFi was fine, check-in was quite fast. Bathroom was a little small, but still quite functional. AirCon was also good. Walls were a little thin but not too bad.

Stay with caution
No complimentary minibar as advertised. Diacussed it with staff, who weren't immediately open to rectifying the issue, but did so a while later. Only provided with 3 items and no water (online pics show min 5 items). No cups or spoon to make complimentary tea/coffee. Main light in room didnt work. Curly black hairs on one of the towels. No one around reception to talk to, to rectify situations.
