It is basically a 3-star motel, the problem is, they charge a 5-start motel rate. Skimping on everything: toilet cistern set to one quarter; no cutlery or crockery in the rooms.

Dear Derek,Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We appreciate hearing from our guests, even when it's not entirely positive.While we understand your perspective, we respectfully disagree with your assessment.Our rates are carefully set to reflect the high standard of quality, cleanliness, comfort, and exceptional service provided by our 3.5-star rating, offering value comparable (or exceeding that) of other higher-star accommodations.While our standard amenities may not include cutlery or crockery in the rooms, we are committed to ensuring our guests have a comfortable and enjoyable stay, and we always do our best to accommodate special requests. Regarding the toilet cistern, we apologies for any inconvenience that it has caused, and encourage guests to notify us promptly of any issues during their stay; which is almost always remedied on the day of notification.Regarding your comment about 'skimping on everything,' we would appreciate further insight into areas where you feel we may have fallen short.We appreciate your stay and hope to welcome you back.Warm regards,

Awesome regional motel
I travel a lot for business all over Australia, and generally stay in chain hotels to improve my chance of having a positive experience. I was a bit nervous staying at this motel, but I was overall blown away by the quality. The room was large, and very clean and well maintained. The bed was very comfortable with lots of pillow options. The mini bar was stocked, which is now becoming rare even at high end places, and there was lots of little touches. For example, I find that often at motels the install 'daylight' bulbs or florescent tubes. It's like staying in a supermarket. This hotel has installed lots of reading lights with warm white bulbs, but also given the option of ceiling lights with bright white. It's a small thing, but when I am working late... It's an important touch. They also have subscribed to every Foxtel (cable) package. Wonderful stay... Highly recommend.

On arrival they had our rooms mixed up. They then started to get frustrated with me because I wouldn’t keep the room( i needed an extra bed for my daughter. ) then the owner went off because the children put water on the floor I think the owners need to retire, very unpleasant service made me feel unwelcomed and uncomfortable. Would not recommend at all

Thank you for your review. You are correct in that your rooms had been mixed up however you failed to mention we went out of our way to accommodate you by calling other guests to see if we could change rooms. At the time you appeared to be happy the problem had been sorted and thanked us. We called you regarding medication that had been left behind. At no time did you tell us you were dissatisfied. Please note Age Discrimination should in no way be brought into this matter and your comments require an apology.

We didn’t spend a lot of time there as we were visiting family but the beds were hard and the shower took a long time to heat up and the hot two was only needed so you couldn’t regulate the temperature for a child and the shower head could be a little bigger but besides that it was clean and nice

Really well maintained motel, the brickwork makes it look a bit dated but everything was clean and the beds and couch seemed to be recent purchases. Our 2 bedroom unit was incredibly spacious compared to other motels. Checkin was easy, the fish lines were great for the kids to look at. Would definitely stay here again.
