It was pretty much just a bed for the night. The owners were really noisy outside of the room until midnight, that was annoying after a 7 hour drive.

Photos are not like they seem. Manager was rude. Rooms were stinky and musty. People in the car park and verandahs smoking drugs. Definitely not a family motel.

It was a quite cheap place to stay that provided everything we needed. Great to have a microwave, sink and reasonable size bar fridge. Other patrons made use of the swimming pool on a hot day.

Room was clean and sparkling. Needs a queen instead of a double bed though. Disappointed that the pool was out of order after an 8 hour drive and 38 degrees. It was slightly green - it’s the middle of summer, you would have thought pool maintenance would be up to date.
