The property is old but the rooms have been painted so the appearance is clean. Again the bathroom is old but everything worked. The staff were helpful and very pleasant so, overall, I can recommend for a short stay.

Comfortable overnight stay!
Friendly welcome. Older style accommodation but nice decor. Very clean and tidy with everything that we needed. Some undercover parking available. Good location, close to fast food and tavern, walking distance. It was good for an overnight stay.

Nice place but needs renovating
It was good having a kitchenette, including an electric frypan. The issue was the shower tiles when I'm having 1 before checkout were falling apart/insecure!!
Family of four, our flight was delayed past office hours, owners were very accomodating made arrangements. Friendly and inviting atmosphere, little secret fruit and veg garden with a BBQ area. The amenities in the room were perfect, Kid’s favourite- wifi and the pool. The beds/bedding soft and comfortable. Thank you City Lights Motel - if available would stay again!
We travelled from Brisbane to meet with family at what we thought was a family friendly motel based on good reviews.
But we’re very disappointed. Cigarette butts soaking in cups of water on the only table in the swimming pool area, a plastic bag of the same on a window sill and a woman’s bikini on the seat. Pool next to busy road and area completely covered with soggy carpet. BBQ area opposite end of property so couldn’t leave kids in pool while using BBQ. While it says ‘designated smoking areas’ that seemed to mean anywhere outside your room. Not family friendly at all. We asked for a refund which was refused.
Lovely motel, very peaceful with a beautiful reception area full of crystals. The room was large and very clean. The whole area was tranquil with plentiful plants and a Buddist influence. The management were friendly and helpful. Only problem was the t v which kept switching itself off after half an hour. Would definitely stay again.
