10/10 Exceptional

Lovely hosts and super clean! Yes, it's an older motel, but it was so clean and serviced daily. Really easy to find and access from a busy road, had convenient parking outside the room, and it was surprisingly quiet considering its location! Felt really safe as a woman staying on my own and the private thermal pool was a lovely treat too. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks!

6/10 Good

Really nice and clean, staff were pleasant and accommodating. Our only issue was that the whole upper floor got no effect from the air conditioning unit. It was crazy hot all night. Other than that the accommodation was clean and fit our needs. Thanks

Thin walls

Showing its age. Spa was empty. Could hear the next unit TV until after 1.30 am
Graeme, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

None of toilet door has lock and toilet slide door does not close properly unsafe to use. Room back door was not lockable. Did not fell safe to sleep in that room. Poor quality of mattress. Hot pool water was sticky and stinky. We paid $350 for the room and felt ripped off.
Rakesh, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The staff are super friendly and welcoming. Some things were damaged but they didn’t impede my stay.My biggest concern was the entrance. While I am confident in mine and my partners driving skills the motel is located on a busy corner. This made it difficult and a little stressful when went entering and exiting the motels parking lot. The motel included not only a pool but private pools if you paid for them. Upon entering our room it was very clean and smelt very good. Due to the high amount of people staying it did make the wifi very slow but you are provided with a tv and sky entertainment. Overall the stay was nice.

Jason, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

This property is very tired and needs to be redecorated. The thermal pool was only just warm and is very much need of a paint. I had to ask for a hair dryer as there was not one in the unit. The bench top was very worn and broken at the edges
Christina, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I really liked the motel. everything was up to state and all the rooms were spotless. my favourite part of the motel was probably the private spa outside the room. I strongly recommend this motel.

The property is older and showing signs of age, but it appears there are efforts to update it. There was quite a bit of traffic noise. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The pool was wonderful!
