The room itself was clean and the bed was comfortable. The whole place needs some TLC, which usually doesn’t bother me if the room is OK. However, standing in reception on arrival, being ignored, while a craggy old man in his boxers deals with other business. Put some pants on for F sake!

All you need

The hotel was very well located, with a really good porch or outdoor seating area overlooking the river. It was quiet and restful, but close to shops and restaurants. The staff were friendly and helpful, and we enjoyed our stay. The building is dated, but the rooms and bathrooms have been updated, and it has all you need.

Hibiscus Lakeside Motel was a nice stopover for our holiday travel. The rooms were comfortable, practical and clean, and the staff were friendly and helpful. Shops and parks not far away and the location was relatively quiet.

We enjoyed a two night stay at the Hibiscus Motel. This is the second time we’ve stayed there. Clean & comfortable. Air conditioning was nice. Will definitely stay again in the future.
