The office staff were very friendly.
The room was nice and big. The price was very reasonable, and free sit down breakfast was not only free, but an amazing variety available. Apart from the traffic noise which is expected being on a main road, the place and service is great. Well done!!
This place is really cheap but we were very pleasantly surprised with it!
Check in is super easy! Sign and date the paper work and pick up the key.
Room was nice and tidy and clean! Also smelt clean. Yes older but clean. Shower was good and hot.
Dinner at the thai restaurant was great. Easy to order online and its free room service.
The room had more light in it at 1am than 1pm. It was necessary to move the bed to close the bathroom door. The road noise at night is not only very loud but ver consistent as well. I have a Land Cruiser Ute and it was extremely difficult to park the vehicle outside my room. I did observe quite a few people staying at the motel have the same issue. The shower head would not stay upright in its saddle, you have no choice but to hold it and try and wash oneself. Overall, I would never stay there again and most certainly would not recommend it to anyone.
Comfortable room and beds, good amenities and facilities, good facilities in kitchen for prep and cooking, some dining chairs not useable - need repairing, clean, staff helpful, breakfast comes with booking - nice start to day but no vegemite, Thai restaurant at accomodation - very delicious with room delivery
How this property gets 4/5 is beyond me. It was unsafe and no one answered calls or messages. After 2 hours of sleep due to guests drinking and smoking (the safety issues), we had to leave in the early hours in the morning. Truely frightening experience not to mention the dirty curtains and peopling paint everywhere. I have no words.
We booked the property and arrived after closing time. Even though it was advertised as parking available (which we required) we were unable to park onsite. We were forced to book another property for this reason. I have attempted to contact the property numerous times to no avail and no response.

We paid less than $100 a night for our two night stay, so based on that it was ok but I wouldnt have wanted to pay much more. Being January I would pick a motel with a pool next time. The included breakfast was a bonus if you arent travelling with stuff, and had different cereals, drinks inc juice, yogurt, pancakes and toast. Note that it only goes until 8.30am and the staff do come in to hurry people up at that time.
The room was very drab, had two beds and was moderately clean but bathroom needed a deep clean around the edges and the toilet leaked at the base which may have been why there were multiple bath mats so you could soak it up.
It definitely looks smarter in the pictures. We arrived by train very late at night so being able to walk from station and get key from lock box was handy. We had thai from the onsite takeaway and it was tasty and delivered to room.
Would stay elsewhere next time.
We told the owner we wouldn't pay on arrival he had already taken it off our card.
The rooms are outdated / some of the furnishings were not in good condition, the pictures we viewed definitely did not look like the motel.
Management not very friendly, the restaurant on site really good food, and service, definitely will not stay again
The bathroom had NO shower screen or curtain. Taps ran continuously and hammered. Bed mattresses and bases had collapsed and pillows had very little filling. No person greeted from reception.
We simply needed a stay over place whilst hauling to Townsville. Clean room with all the expected items within it. It was simply great value for us given what we were doing.

On arrival there was no staff just a check-in paper on the front table. We went to our room and all the curtain were just hanging off the rails but this was wiyh all the rooms.
Inside the ceilings had all stains on them ( food/blood?) Black long hairs on the tables. Fist marks in the walls. The toilet and shower had hairs on the walls and floor.
The bed base had all stains and marks on them. We would nevrr stay here again and rather pay a bit more money. It felt like i went to a brothel room. You could hear everyone talking in other rooms and at the front and upstairs. I was glad we left and couldnt wait to have a shower at the next destination. Wouldnt recommend at all.
Was a good little motel for what you want it for just the night bed could have been more comfy but don't expect perfect for small motel. Thai food was great and continental breakfast was perfect helped us get back on the road quicker.
There was no interaction with staff. Check in was a number of people's reservations placed onto a table so that everyone's details could be read by others. Rooms were spartan, with old, worn or stained furniture. I found long hairs in the bathroom. The air con was on in the room when I arrived so that was thoughtful. The bed was comfy. When I walked in though, I thought "what has happened to this place?" as I've stayed there a few times. This hotel has declined a lot over the past few years.
Good bed. Second stay here. First was in room 8 which was good. This time room 4 closer to main road so a little noisy. However this room had a hairdryer which the other one didn't
Small room and tiny bathroom. You get what you paid for. No reception. Keys left outside office. No breakfast - no staff showed up. TV worked. Overall okay.
