Have been to many motels and the room would be the worst I have stayed. Motel needs a complete make over or demolished.

Wifi connection was poor. Room was clean and there was cutlery and plates along with a microwave which were positive. No foot towel in the bath room and no liquid soap in the shower. The price is cheap which is also a positive.

Motel used for housing the homeless!! Arrival seen every room occupied by severely effected drug uses with their doors open! The room I was given smelt like a meth pipe and I demanded my money back
Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025

Nice location and friendly staff. Terrible room it smelt of wet dog and cigarettes. The room looked nothing like the photos used to sell the place. In fact it looked like it had never been updated since the 60’s. Just a little paint here and there to cover up the atrocities that have no doubt been committed in the room.

I don't know what motel some of the reviewers stayed in, but it can't have been this one. The place is very old with little to no maintainence done. Dirty with an over-riding stench of cigarettes, there seem to be permanent residents who appear to not to get on well. Very noisy, this is by far the worst motel I've ever stayed in.

WARNING! FILTHY! Cockroaches all over the floor. And to make it much worse, I went to the front desk and asked if they could clean it. They said no. I then asked for a broom, so at least I could sweep everything. They said no. They then said I could pay an amount equal to a whole extra room, and upgrade. He then said if I wanted a 5 star hotel, I should have gone somewhere else. I just wanted to get rid of cockroaches! The worst staff I have ever seen. What employer keeps staff who have an opinion of their place like that, COCKROACHES ARE EXPECTED BY THE FRONT DESK STAFF, LIVE WITH IT.

Look people, this motel is indeed due for an upgrade. You are paying $150 per night, not 3 or 4 hundred. The bed was comfy, parking right outside your room. Everything was clean and the owner/manager is a great bloke. If you drive a Holden, be prepared to talk about cars. He is a fan of the late Mr. Peter Brock. Give him a go and then maybe he can renovate.
