Spacious home away from home.
Was pleasantly surprised when I entered my unit as it appeared spacious, clean and we'll decorated. Staff were very polite and eager to do their jobs. Being a non driver it was great to see a bus stop outside the motel and one across the road. The buses were easy to use as long as you had a preloaded Bee card. As a gold card holder my information was loaded on my Bee card which made bus travel free. Ten minute walk to a dairy and slightly further to supermarket and food places. Would definitely stay there again.

This place was more than adequate for what we needed as a stop over stay. Parking was right in front of the room. Fridge was very noisy over night but other than that no issues. There is a bond that they require on top of the fee of $100 but this is refunded after check out. I didn't mind this as I am guessing perhaps they have had some issues in the past that have meant they have needed to do this. Overall, adequate budget stay.

Was given a disabled room and not being disabled myself I couldn't park in the allocated space which made it tricky to park safely. The walls are paper thin so bring earplugs if you are planning to stay.

Room spacious and clean. However, the shower-room without a door is miserable as it was wet and slippery after shower. Suggest to add a handle by the tap so make it a bit safer , especially for those seniors.
