Booking and access were easy after a long day's drive with two young children. Room was clean and just right.
Stayed at the kication for 4 nights, have to stay was impressed with the stay. Was greeted by at reception by a lovely lady who explained everything i needed to know and for once seemed as if she was generally interested in where i had been in Australia made a nice change from forced interactions. The room was very clean and came with a nice array of coffee and milk. I was well aware that i wasn't staying in a 5 star hotel and for the price the room and facilites were very good value for money. I mean they even had a pool. Shower was really good. Only downside but in no way the motels fault was that its located directly below the approach to the airport so occasionally can be loud but as its a regional airport its few and far between. So all in all if you need somewhere good value, clean friendly and located perfectly for the main town and airport this is a great place.

Was recently renovated clean but airport very close
What I like most is the friendly staff. The location is a walking distance to the closest supermarket. Easy access to catch a bus to the main shopping Centre.
The management were wonderful and couldn’t do enough for you. The motel is older but the rooms were clean, comfortable and well maintained with a good selection of appliances and stocked with quality tea and coffee. All a single traveler could want.
A very convenient accommodation in the Main Street.
Clean and comfortable for a short stay
