The room was far more basic than advertised. It was old, outddated and not comfortable. The staff were lovely, however.

No internet for our entire stay No air conditioning and the filter on it looks like it has not been cleaned in years. Thank god it was not 35 degrees as is normal at this time of the year. No information on places to go things to do around Canberra and surrounding area. We were given a wrist band and told we had to wear it the duration of our stay which was 5 days. Spider webs on the roof. My daughter husband and kids all so stayed in one of your rooms, wait till you get her review as her room was totally disgusting. Will we be back next year ? Defiantly Will we book your motel again ? Defiantly not

It felt like we were out in the country but in reality, we were about 17 minutes from Parliament House. It was a one bedroom unit obviously recently cleaned because bathroom was still wet. Out only concern was that the bedding was not warm enough for the freezing cold nights and there was no heating in the bedroom, only the living areas.
