We chose this motel because it had such a high rating. Maybe the other rooms are better but ours was dated and seriously run down. It so needs a make over. Staff were friendly and it was clean but no amount of cleanliness can make up for aged and worn chattels.

Basic and comfortable room. Comfy bed. Liked the spa bath in the small private courtyard out the back.
Owners may need to spend a bit of time on maintenance, eg, the moss and cobwebs in the courtyard. Could also see the Smoke alarm was not working.
Overall, a pleasant stay.

The property is located on the main road with heavy truck passing by and causing the ground shaking. Feels like an earthquakes. Apart from that our stay was acceptable.
