Rooms were clean, parking is first in first served and a warning for thise that smoke or vape on the premises outside on site its a $250 fine. On check in the cleaners were still getting rid of rubbish and laundry outside the rooms I'm guessing they had alot of guests. No tea towels or kitchen sink for doing dishes or stove top but had a extraction fan. Good for a hassle free short stay.

The room and grounds were not in the greatest condition- more old and outdated than anything else. The bathroom door did not shut. The room was really big and the bed was comfortable. There was also plenty of parking in the front and out back. This is a fine place to stay if you just plan on sleeping there- it definitely isn’t luxury.

Room needs ao.w maintenance big time. Staff struggled to accept cash, their dog jumped all over us. The toilet seat fell off, mould on the shower and basin. The shower drain was blocked. The bathroom fan was completely blocked and did not spin. The milk pottles in the fridge were god knows how old. Thick, chunky milk. We had to ram the door just to get it to open. Avoid this place!
