6/10 Good

Comfortable enough property,but rooms are in dire need of renovation, and bathrooms a bit dirty
SAMUEL JAMES NEILL, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

Short break

Was good price. Room was spacious. Needs a refurb. Was dated and worn. Cleanliness needed to be improved
Angela, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Below expectation

The unit was a 2-storey unit, large enough for my family of 7. Most appliances were old, the toilet at lower floor was fitted with a loose sliding door. No one dare to use it because the gap is too big. Toilet at upper floor had urine smell. It could be due to the carpeted toilet floor. Pillow case was dirty. Car park was cramped, narrow bend, and extremely bad for minibus, especially when others some dies not parked in their lot.
KHOO, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Thank you for letting a friend pick up the stuff we left. Love the size and space of the room. Needs a bolt lock on the door.

8/10 Very good

Great shower. Couches were nice. Needs 30 second spray in Kitchen, a sand, and recoat on window seals. Rooms were nice. Staff was friendly. I prefer a securer lock on front door. Plenty of towels and beds. Heating was great too!

It is a three star motel. I do not expect brand new. I do expect cleanliness, courteous helpful staff, and everything working as it should in the bathroom and kitchen. I was not disappointed. The seats and bed were very comfortable. Excellent.
