"I was told to book on the sunday and come at 12pm there was a bed in a dormitory for me. I arrive to the guy who was suppose to be in reception outside smoking. I called the mobile number it was the same guy who was outside smoking, he came in and said to me we do not take bookings Sundays after telling me on the phone to book and come. I wasted money on ubers because he wouldn't give me my bed that I had paid for. Absolutely terrible service. He couldn't care less."

This motel is situated within a small retail park so access and parking (with permit) is easy and it's not far from Kingston beach. Also, easy walk across the road to shops. The room is so big it could easily accommodate a king size bed. Everything required for a comfortable stay was provided. However, the switches for the bedside lights were not accessible from the bed and the room could have done with a mirror in addition to the one in the bathroom.
