Motel Echo Point

8/10 Good
"Modern and tidy with good basic supplies needed for an overnight stay. Clean bedding and towels. It was good to have tea supplied. Had a bit of a musty or carpet smell when first walked in. But after we turned airconditioning on, it went away or we just got used to it. Access to Netflix and YouTube was good to have, little bit laggy but got there in the end. Parking was tight, car was scratched when parked. Possibly by luggage movement by neighbouring vehicles. Windows don't lock. A few moths got into the room, we had to catch and release them. Overall 4/5 stay if you take into consideration value for money for the location."
