Lady at the front desk was kind and helpful. Went out of her way when we had a problem with a tour bus not showing up. Was able to get an Uber to meet the tour bus somewhere else and did not miss our tour we planned many months in advance.

While this motel is convenient for being close to major airports, the room left a lot to be desired. The worst features were a number of electrical outlets that were broken and unsafe in the room, and a complete lack of cutlery and only two mugs for hot beverages. Only recommend a stay here if you need quick access to airports prior to a trip away.

Bed had a mattress which was overdue for replacement. Sagged in the middle and could feel the metal springs. The room we were allocated could sleep 5, but there was only one mug and one very tiny spoon to stir with. Bathroom was very old and needs refurbishment, no toilet roll holder, soap dish lying on floor of shower, which showed signs that the tiles needed a very deep clean. When checking in I became very suspicious when the woman wanted to take a copy of my drivers licence, without saying why!. I refused, but let her check my name against the booking. Overall dissatisfied.

I had my 12 yr old Granddaughter with me. She locked her phone in the room. It cost $50 for a staff member to open the door....what a bloody ripoff. Also, there was no cutlery or crockery for buying a take away meal to eat in the room. We needed to share one very tiny 1/4 sized "teaspoon" for both coffee and food. I went to the office to see about cutlery and it was dark and locked. That was about 7.30 and they were supposed to be open till 10....haha.Extremely bare necessities in the room....no hairdryer.
