Easy to find. Staff was responsive. Property condition itself is clean but interior infrastructure was so so. Water drainage was poor and overflowed during shower. Noise from repair works and other customers in and out throughout the day clearly heard, although at acceptable level

Not a pleasant visit. Receptionist did not speak English tried to over charge us, rubbish under the couch and beds, room given was not even made up, then went back to reception and she turned up in a t shirt with no bra or pants, doors in kitchen hanging off, laminate peeling, mould in bathroom. Servicing was change the rubbish bag and towels nothing else. Will not be back.. this motel needs to be upgraded inside and also someone on reception who speaks English and doesn't dress like they are always in bed. Only good thing was the location.

The owner was fantastic! The manager has also be amazing. The hotel is clean, tidy and so close to downtown. Its a bargain.

Was not worthy of 4 Star status. Room was dated and dirty, no clothes hangers in the room, the kitchen surface and the kitchen draws were sticky, and last but not least the towels were discoloured. In summary it was not a memorable experience and won't ever return.
