Well-priced for what it is although there is a $30 pet surcharge that they only tell you about after you book.
My first thought on driving in & seeing the place was "creepy AF". Glad I had my dog.
Some of the listed pictures appear to be out-of-date, so it is more run-down that the pictures indicate. The bathroom & toilet certainly don't help mitigate the creepy vibe, especially with no light in the toilet.
Poorly soundproofed, conveniently located on the main road & with the motel's neighbours having a party (it was a Friday, so fair enough) bring ear plugs if you're a light sleeper.
Overall experience: average but adequate.
Not enough milk for coffee ect no knives in room one plate and one bowl to eat with for 2 ppl staying in room

Stayed 3 days, the unit was very clean, bed comfortable (apart from armchairs which were a bit old & hard). Owner friendly & obliging. Will stay there again.
Easy check-in. Room was pretty cold and took a while to warm up.
Noisy too at night with proximity to main road.
Dirt/gravel car park area would be nicer if concreted.

A bit disappointing but get what you pay for
Be aware there is no reception so check in is via a text message or through the "kiosk " on the wall. Unfortunately, the lughts were pit when i arrived so had to use phone torch to navigate pin codes to gain entry. 2 very old, dirty arm cgairs in room 1 which should be thrown out. Rest of decor was fine. Traffic noise so use ear plugs. Clean comfy bed.
The best low budget motel i have stayed at in a long time. Low budget doesnt mean dirty and unkept here unlike other low budget motels. This place was spotless! Clean comfy beds and great shower pressure. Will definitely stay again.
I loved the price. Wanted somewhere to just to sleep overnight. Clean, good location and great value for money!
Thank you! :)

Good value for money and clean. Good parking for long vehicles available. A bit noisy as is located on main road but that was to be expected. The split system was a bit noisy and kept us awake at night. But overall our experience was good and we would stay there in the future.
