There is no reception. The property is now run by the motel next door like an old annex. It is very old and dilapidated. Good Bed. Great hot, powerful shower. Otherwise ready to be bulldozed.

All in all a decent place to rest your head before your flight. The lady at checkin was very friendly and helpful with any information. And the included bus ride back and forth from the airport was certainly a plus. The place could definitely use some touch up. Like new paint in the rooms and maybe a carpet steam clean throughout. Sheets were fresh and clean. Pillows were soft and comfortable. Bathroom was clean. The floor fan was very dusty but i cleaned it myself, i honestly didnt mind that. Overall the place needs some work. But I dont think its the nightmare hotel like i read online, at least in my experience.

Due to covid i was unable to travel, I didn't chancel booking as my other travelling companions were still going. Unfortunately they were unable to cancel the booking as they needed my permission as I did the booking. My friends had to find alternative accommodation due to the accommodation's unsatisfactory condition (hygene and safety). I therefore ask for a refund. Please note, I contacted you immediately on 4 December, and to date, I have not heard from you nor the Hotel directly. Your urgent assistance is greatly appreciated.

Sleep on the airport floor instead
If you have to choose between sleeping at this hotel or the airport floor, take the airport floor. If that’s no option, sleep at the bus shelter. If that’s not possible, find a meth dealer and stay up all night. The good; free shuttle every 30 min to/from airport but it’s organised from the adjoining hotel and no instructions how to get it. (International Bus Stop D - The Yellow Bus) The bad; no fans, no aircon, dirty hall ways, fire alarm broken (see photo), doors hard to open, very hot during the day, no air flow. You may save a few dollars by staying here but unless you’ve been deployed or lived in a third world country, this will be the worst place you’ve stayed.
