Room was in good condition, however the extension power board wasn’t working and then the tv. They replaced the tv with a new one. I exchanged the power board from the next room. Room service replaced our towels but forgot to take all the used towels and forgot to refill the hand soap dispenser.

I had been on the road too long and found this little Gem on a whim to rest for the evening. Direct shot from the Highway, petrol and groceries close by and making it simple and easy to get back on the road in the morning. Room had lots of space and My 6yr old had the time of his life. had a swim in the pool, took a walk in the quiet leafy area around, he found the firepit and BBQ and asked to come back with all his mates and then we made a Giant bubble bath. A 1-night stop for survival turned into core family memory. We will return.

Big room. Aspects of room "tired" and in need of repair (e.g., cracked / broken floor tiles in bathroom, taps in bathroom). Lacks sufficient power points (GPOs) which are supplemented by two cheap power boards. Pleasant outlook from rear of room. Nice quiet location.

No hot water on first night and no offer of compensation. Also staff did not inform us of the lack of hot water. Staff were not very friendly and the room was not very clean.

Rang several times, left messages and emails to advise we would be late. No one was there and first room we were given had not been cleaned at all with bedding clearly left a mess from last occupants. Room we ended up in was clean and comfortable but cold and bathroom needed a refresh.

Peaceful But Needs Some Updating

This motel appears to have been an expensive spend when first constructed, but fixtures and fittings are now a little "long in the tooth" and in need of modernising. If you provide liquid soap etc. dispensers, at least ensure they are full when room is serviced. The washbasin soap dispenser was empty as was the shower gel - not very good particularly at the price point of the rooms. Several rooms being serviced with bedding disheveled and unoccupied were left in full view with open curtains; not a good look. We had a quiet and peaceful stay all the same.

Asked to swap rooms as the king bedroom with “garden view” was a bit misleading as the view was more like dirt view with a line of trees close by . Wife was also unimpressed with cleanliness. However they did redeem themselves by swapping us to a room with lawns view, that was also a lot cleaner. No smart tv though ! Just terrestrial channels. Overall would recommend but ask for queen room with lawn view
