Room was a good size and really clean. We arrived late so our room was set up for us to head straight in to. Unfortunately there is no sound proofing so you could hear the people above, and every car out side. It was on the expensive side but i did book only a few hours before arriving Fresh milk would jave been good as the uht .milk supplied wasnt enough for two coffees. There was a note that fresh milk was available from the office but it was 5am when i noticed and i was not waking tje moteliers at that hour. $100 hold was put on my card amd i had to phone to follow this uo tje next day as it wasn't released.
