It was 44c when I arrived in the afternoon but the lady in reception had turned the aircon on for me so I was not walking into an oven of a room. THANKS, it's an older motel but the room was clean and had everything I needed. I would definitely stay again if in the area.

No Frills No Fuss

Room was as expected for this type of accommodation. There was a terrible smell in the bathroom, we covered all the drains and ran some water which made it ok until the next day when it happened again. The bathroom needs to be redone but the shower had good water pressure. We stayed in the family room which had a bit of extra space over the standard room but have also stayed here in the standard room before. The bed was comfortable, the bedding was all clean and crisp. The staff are very helpful and friendly. There is no breakfast available even though the hotels.com site says there is.

Disappointed

I have marked my review down as when I entered the unit the bleach smell was strong. I opened all the windows and went for tea. The smell was a little less with the window open all night. My husband said that there was mould on the roof in the shower compartment, so they would have been trying to get that off. This was room 7. I wondered about the other reviews as they were quite high for this motel.
