540 on Great South Motel

The room and location is good, clean but the lady receptionist never even say hello or hi no smile nothing so dry. The room is ok clean if i choose again where to stay definitely not here.

The bed was comfortable, and the only thing that felt fresh and clean. Firstly I noticed the bathroom was sub-standard with stains, questionable "deposits" on the wall by the toilet, burn-marks in the sink, and no facilities for cleaning dishes, if we could have stomached using the chipped crockery and very old and faded looking mugs. The kettle had water in it when we checked in. The Television was good with Freeview channels only. The fridge was empty and in need of a good clean. The shower is mounted over a spa-bath, which I was not prepared to use due to the marks in the bath. Decor is very tired and shabby (apart from the bed which was fine, if firm). The staff-member who served me was polite when checking in as was the other staff member who took my key when checking out.

Good hosts but the soundproofing is almost non-existent. I could hear every word said in the room next door as well as slamming drawers television and arguments. I had the misfortune to be there for an extended period and it was just awful. Terrible area. I guess it depends on your expectations but 4 stars it is not.

Unpleasant stay with a rude staff and manager. He manages to hang off from the phone twice in 3mn. The breakfast was very light. Be aware that the manager charges $8 per day per device. So I end up pay $16 per day for both my phone and laptop. I don't recommend that hotel.

It doesn't look like much from the outside but my room was very comfortable and exceeded my expectations. Service was great and I was able to find good coffee, breakfast and dinner within walking distance. I would stay here again.
