I can not believe how disgusting this venue was, I understand low cost but the toilet and shower look like they have never been cleaned. I would never tell anyone to stay here.

It looks like it was built in the 1960s and has had very little proper maintenance since. I arrived at about 3:15 pm and the room was not ready. When it was ready, it was very very basic. The bathroom is in very poor condition with many cracks in the tiles filled roughly with silicone, and lots of black mould. There were dead cockroaches in the crockery cupboard, and plenty of live ones running around the floors. The TV only has about 4 stations and none of the local ones work. The building creaks and bangs through the night. The bed was clean and comfortable. The best thing about it is that I now know not to stay there again.

The staff member at reception was great, very helpful. The gardens and pool area were clean, neat and well maintained. The room itself was very dated, in need of maintenance and an overall revamp and deep clean.

The bathroom light wasn’t working so we had to shower in the dark with phone torches on and no one to ask about it. The rooms were very dated. The only pro was the beds looked clean.

Look people, this motel is indeed due for an upgrade. You are paying $150 per night, not 3 or 4 hundred. The bed was comfy, parking right outside your room. Everything was clean and the owner/manager is a great bloke. If you drive a Holden, be prepared to talk about cars. He is a fan of the late Mr. Peter Brock. Give him a go and then maybe he can renovate.
