Generally clean, good room service. Could be better if you could provide more cloth hangers in wardrobe,and large plates, there were only side plates and bowls. Good location and price.

An older style motel, but quite satisfactory for a comfortable stay. Very easy to find when arriving from the north. It doesn't have a restaurant, but there is a Macca's on the opposite side of the Federal Highway (approx 250m walk) and a suburban shopping centre at Watson, about 1km away.

No service of the amenities when we went on a day trip and arrived back around 9pn. Room had not been serviced. No fresh towels. No fresh coffee, tea, milk etc Pretty poor response from the counter when I bought it to their attention. $200 per night for a 6 person stay and no servicing. Not likely I'll be recommending the motel to anyone or be staying there again.

The location was convenient. The free wifi and air conditioning were good. We had raw chicken from the previous guest left in the fridge in our room, and there was both live and dead cockroaches in the room.
