Good continental breakfast supplied. No bench space around the sink. Shower was a wrap around curtain with the water running on the floor. The steakhouse was not operating. The road had cement centre strips that made it hard to get in and out of the motel.

Our room (14) had a torn curtain, no blockout blinds. Power points on the bed side were so far out of reach as to be useless. Huge sink in the bathroom but no bench space. Advertised as 'Steak House' but no such facility was in operation. Only catering was a simple self-serve breakfast. The receptionist was friendly and helpful.
