The photos paint a much nicer image of the property than what it is actually like in real life. It was fine for a one night stay but that’s it. The smell of the cleaning chemicals they use in the bathroom was so overwhelming when we walked into our room that we had to leave the door and window open and leave the bathroom fan on for over an hour before we could stand closing them. The cover on the bed is very thin but extra blankets in the cupboard helped with that. The bathroom towel rail was broken and the bathroom floor desperately needs a good scrub in the grout. The beds were comfortable and the motel is off the main road so it is nice and quiet. It could do with a spruce up but otherwise it was fine for one night.

Appreciate it is a budget motel, but we chose it for a 1-night stay because of location and mainly rating from Wotif (8. something rating) The room was nothing like the pictures

Cosy property supplied with everything we needed. Shower was over a large bath - the bath bottom felt a bit slippery. Nice wine style fridge but no ice box.

The motel was scrupulously clean and comfortable. Parking right outside your door. This is a budget motel so the facilities are a bit dated but so very clean and comfortable. It is close to a shopping centre and other facilities but also fairly quiet. Staff were friendly and very accommodating. Highly recommended.

I booked for 2 nights on way to Adelaide. The reviews were great hence the booking. There are several room types. I booked Deluxe Queen. Not sure what the delux part was. It was absolutely nothing like the pictures. The ceiling fan in bathroom was not even installed & there was exposed wiring. So I was unable to shower for 2 days. I asked for another room. Was told fully booked. I contacted Expedia to get a refund or partial for the inconvenience. They said they have tried to get in contact with them then washed their hands. So effectively I paid $300 for a hostel room. So disgusting & disappointing that businesses aren't accountable for their crap service. Both as bad as each other. I wish I was able to attach pictures for you to see. SAVE YOURSELVES THE MONEY & DONT BOOK THIS PLACE!
