The location is a bit remote, a typical motel, with electric blankets so it won't be too cold at night. Parking is free. No breakfast. The air conditioner window unit is too noisy and must be turned off when sleeping at night.

Was in Portland for Work, stayed here due to proximity to work. Was told no room service, there was no shampoo, Conditioner only body wash, which was empty. Bed was terrible and Aircon sounded like there was a truck inside. The couch was old and very uncomfortable. Shower screen kept falling off and water flow was horrific. The owners are obviously scared of people stealing toilet paper as there was an antitheft toilet paper dispenser which was broken. There was no one at reception, the door was locked. Had to call for service. Outside was very uninviting, with unkept gardens and weeds plentiful out side room. Only plus was new Smart TV with Foxtel. I would avoid at all costs. We left after 1 night from a 3 night booking and went to Quest.

Very noisy air conditioners The air conditioners are poorly located and very noisy. The air conditioner for the next door room kept me awake for most of the night.

No one at reception to great us on arrival at 2pm. Had to phone to get instructions for Room number & admission to it. Toilet bowl dirty with seat half off plus shower screen hanging off rail which had to be rehung prior to use.location only redeeming feature.

Would have been nice to have AC on after arriving after a very hot day. Only 2 towels for 3 people and no faces after a hot sweaty day and having booked for 3 people wasn’t ideal. Shower is very old and grubby.
