The hotel was close to Sunshine hospital where we were visiting. The room was okay, shower was quite nice. The single bed was very cold as too close to the window and hard and lumpy. Overall not bad for the money. A bottle of water would have been appreciated.

Great for families, convenient, true to price

We had stayed for night at Sunshine Motor Inn. Overall it was nice, pictures a quite accurate, had an on-site parking in front of our appartment, which was convenient. We got upgraded into a King Bedroom which was nice little surprise. Sadly we didn’t get a chance to use the spa pool or pool but it was open to use, which was nice to know. Definitely recommend Sunshine Motor Inn for families. Only let down for us was no microwave in the rooms we stayed in and our toilet seemed to be clogged a little. Shower was great and tiled nicely. Tea and Coffee provided and bed was very comfortable. Overall was best for the money we paid.

The only disappointment was the motel policy of not providing plates,bowls or cutlery in room,however we were provided with said items when we requested them. I would have thought that they would be in a deluxe king room! No problems with the room
