Curtains were too small to cover the window entirely. Both shampoo and body wash dispensers in the shower were empty.

This motel is very convenient, well located, clean and clearly well cared for. Unfortunately we had a very long aggressive argument taking place outside our room through much of the first half of the night, a radio that went on at 4.30am in another room and then a loud business call directly outside our window at 6am. It was not a restful night and we moved accommodation. We were not able to get refunded for the remainder of our stay.

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We appreciate your comments regarding our location and cleanliness. I apologize for any inconvenience you experienced during your stay.Our motel has a strict policy of maintaining a quiet environment between 9 pm and 8 am to ensure a restful night for all guests. If you encounter any issues, we encourage you to promptly report them to our staff either via telephone or by visiting the reception. We take guest comfort seriously and will address any disturbances promptly.Regarding the noise incidents you mentioned, our investigation revealed that the four adjacent rooms were unoccupied except for a pleasant lady staying next to your room. We apologize if her presence contributed to any disruptions.As for the early check-out refund, we have not received any notification from Expedia regarding your request. Additionally, our staff was informed that your departure was due to a family matter, necessitating your move to Tasmania.Once again, I apologize for any inconvenience you faced, and we hope to have the opportunity to improve your experience in the future. If you have any further concerns, please feel free to reach out to us directly.Best regards,
