Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Lovely hosts and super clean! Yes, it's an older motel, but it was so clean and serviced daily. Really easy to find and access from a busy road, had convenient parking outside the room, and it was surprisingly quiet considering its location! Felt really safe as a woman staying on my own and the private thermal pool was a lovely treat too. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks!

I really liked the motel. everything was up to state and all the rooms were spotless. my favourite part of the motel was probably the private spa outside the room. I strongly recommend this motel.

This property is very tired and needs to be redecorated. The thermal pool was only just warm and is very much need of a paint. I had to ask for a hair dryer as there was not one in the unit. The bench top was very worn and broken at the edges
