My room was clean and well outfitted, and they were able to accommodate my request for a ground level room. Check in and out was easy. Only downside was some unavoidable building noise while I was there.

The room had a toaster and microwave though there was no crockery or cutlery provided and only 1 teaspoon. The television reception was poor. It rained the first day we were there and all night there were loud dropping noises on the roof which kept my husband and I awake.

I didn’t want to leave. The room is so welcoming and comforting. I think it’s the crisp white sheets, pillow cases and the warmest Doona I’ve ever slept under. Soft white towels. It’s the most pristine and clean motel room that I’ve ever seen. I’ll be back.

Friendly welcoming reception upon arrival. Comfortable queen sized bed, small room, basic needs provided Bathroom sink very small, non adjustable spout and no room to wash face, without head butting the water spout. Thin window curtain so some people may question privacy. Morning light came quite early as a result. Road/truck traffic may be an issue depending on day of week. Overall, a decent stay aside of the above!

Overall a decent place my family stayed in while visiting in the area. The staff was friendly and polite. Place provided basic things we needed and I loved that they have heated blankets although we didn't get to use them as it wasn't that cold. I'm sure they'd be very helpful during winter. I also loved that each guest was provided with 2 pillows each and the bed and pillows were comfortable. Could do better with cleaning like the bathroom had some stains on the wall. Also there weren't enough parking spaces for all guests so we had to park at the other building. Would stay here again next time.
