Do not stay at this place! It is a part-time hotel—the woman at the front desk used that term. The front desk is only open from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm. It is shut tight otherwise and sometimes more often. I returned at 5:20 pm yesterday and no one was there; reception was locked tight. I lost electricity twice when reception was closed. Had to call an off-time number. No clean towels unless you ask specially and no cleaning of the rooms. And there were tiny ants all over my kitchenette. I wanted to go somewhere at 8:00 am the day I checked out but had to wait until 9:00 am for someone to open reception so I could leave my luggage. Seriously?

Facilities are clean, yet fairly old and the environment is noisy with vehicle and pedestrian movements. One of the windows was loose in its frame resulting in a lot of rattling noise during the night when the wind was blowing strongly. On a positive note, the process for late arrivals was communicated well on time and it was easy to obtain my key and find my room.

We were willing to overlook the lack of cleanliness after we checked in. We knew that the hotel was older but cleaning shouldn’t be sacrificed. Lots of mould in shower that hadn’t been cleaned, vacuuming that wasn’t fully complete ( there was debris under bed from previous guests) and light covers were filthy. Sadly the aircon was very noisy which didn’t enable a great nights sleep (which we all desperately needed after travelling). We would not agree that this hotel is anywhere near a 4 star.

A great little motel. My challenge is that they knew how many people were staying but only had half the blankets in the room. The staff were good when I dealt with them. I hope it was a slight hiccup in service

Room ok for quick overnight stay. Bathroom dated, worn and rusty. A lot of noise in the carpark and rooms through the night. No smoking in rooms but everyone stands at the front door of units and it comes into the rooms anyway. People sitting on other people’s cars and drinking. Did not feel safe leaving Liam vehicle unattended over night.

Needs some maintenance as handbasin tap come out in hand, Air conditioner needs fixing and not run subsidiary unit. Mattress needs updating as too hard to sleep on. Your high speed wifi was not that efficient. Cater to customer as steps and luggage is not a good mix for the elderly.
