Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Overall was pleasant enough however upon checking out and checking if we dropped anything under the bed, we found a dirty pair of men’s boxer shorts. Definitely not my husbands as it was stuck under the bed which I was disgusted by. We could only get 2 channels on the tv, SBS and ABC. There was no instructions provided on how to get other channels given that there was no “signal” for all the other channels. Definitely a negative given we had a child with us.

Totally over-priced for a late 1950's early 1960's motel. They have attempted to give it a lick of paint and some security cameras, but the place needs demolishing, it is past it's use-by date.

Very clean room also the bed was so comfy, all toiletries were supplied were to the high standard, I can only comment of 1 problem at the motel and that is, the car park and outside of the rooms is very dirty that needs to be cleaned daily as there were ear bud sticks(used) also teeth cleaners and just basic everyday rubbish like cigarette butts, the workers need to more aware of their surroundings for cleanliness so when clients are not bringing dirt into the rooms.
