Look it’s a pretty basic room, very average, but it’s fine if you just want a bed to sleep in, clean and the rest of the hotel is great so it was a little disappointing the room didn’t match the property
Room was clean and fresh, variety of breakfast great, staff friendly and obliging, will definitely stay again and recommend to others.

The rooms are very old but comfortable and clean.
There is a $200 bond we weren’t prepared for, but luckily had sufficient funds to cover it. Be aware though, if paid by credit card it can take a week to drop off your ‘pending transactions’ and being able to access to those funds again.
Suggestion & Feedback:-
There are no lights when making your way from the hotel dining area to the rooms. Have your phone flashlight at the ready.
This a safety issue as the ground is uneven and sloping.
Recommend Blue Gums install sensor lights.
The room was beautifully presented with all the amenities needed. The staff, Bree specifically was very accommodating. Very pleasant stay.

The property is a fair way from airport but that was our choice as it was handy to locations we needed to visit. Shower was terrible and needs work . Room very spacious and staff good. excellent hotel bistro but a little pricy but food excellent
Although room fixtures were dated, it was comfortable and spotlessly clean. Breakfast supplies were sufficient and restocked each day. Great value for the price. Great stay at this motel.
