Disliked: Cleanliness
Uncomfortable bed and pillows. Dirty crockery. Leaking shower. Smelly towels. Poor cleaning in bathroom.
The staff were so lovely at any given time.
A great place that’s quiet but very close to main strip in town. Definitely good value for money.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
We stayed here for one night during a road trip and were happy with our stay. The staff were friendly, and the room was well-equipped and clean. The beds and pillows were extremely comfortable, and the motel is conveniently located within walking distance of several food options. We would definitely stay here again.
Stayed overnight arriving very late but it was no problem for management to turn on a light and the aircon and leave the key in a safe place
Would stay again fore sure
