I have stayed at this property many times. I would describe it as simple, straight forward, the rooms are pretty small, but you have everything you need. Over the road (busy road) are Coles, Kmart, Woolworths etc. As well as McDonalds, Hungry Jacks etc. I like that this hotel is out of town. It takes around 25 minutes to get into town by car. The train station is around 15 minutes walking from the hotel. Free parking at the hotel. I really like staying at this hotel.

This is an ultimate budget room. Some would say it's fine, it has a bed and bathroom but I felt very dirty in it. Box air con looks filthy, bathroom was tiny and toilet got wet when showering, no basin in bathroom, no hand towel or soap, was only given 2 pillows and they were paper thin. Would have preferred to pay an extra $50 and stay somewhere comfy across the road.

Good location, easy access, staff interactions helpful but minimal. It's fine. It's exactly what it says, it's a budget stay. Nothing was broken or filthy or advertised dishonestly. It's fine. I'm over 6 foor tall. The shower is not made for human beings on this scale, and I had to tuck my legs to prevent from accidentally kneeing the door open when using the bathroom. Economy has to come from somewhere. None of this is a knock. It was fine.
