The bath and shower were both really good, as was the bed. However, it was hard to sleep due to lights that shone outside from the verandah into the bedroom - even with the blackout curtains closed.

I stayed because it had a high rating, but it seems no different than the motels in the area and nothing superior about it. So that can be a let down and make a person feel like they have been duped. It is a clean and tidy room the same size and quality as an average motel room.
