This motel is very convenient, well located, clean and clearly well cared for. Unfortunately we had a very long aggressive argument taking place outside our room through much of the first half of the night, a radio that went on at 4.30am in another room and then a loud business call directly outside our window at 6am. It was not a restful night and we moved accommodation. We were not able to get refunded for the remainder of our stay.

First time I have stayed in a property where staff have kept a spare room between guests (so quiet) when the property is not at capacity. An older motel, but money being spent lifting the standard. New air-con and TV. Beds very comfortable, good quality woolen blankets. Great range of spreads for toast (butter, jams vegemite). Will definitely stay here again.
