This motel is very well run. Friendly, helpful and accommodating owners. They upgraded my booking as a kind gesture. It is spotlessly clean and quiet. Close to buses, shopping, restaurants and everything you need. I would definitely recommend this motel to others.

Clean and comfortable
Very handy location. We had a two bedroom unit which was upstairs at the front of the motel. We were a little concerned about the traffic noise but it wasn’t overly loud during the night. Very comfortable bed and pillows, everything was clean and the staff were very friendly. Great to have two bathrooms in the unit. We would definitely stay again.
