The Q Motel
The room was good for our purposes- a stop over on a long road trip. The shower was hot and the aircon cool, and nice big TV. Tea and coffee a biscuit if you want. Handy to places for meals, and breakfast is provided which was really a bonus. We would stay again.

Motel Lodge
Parking was fine. Kitchen was great, everything I needed. First night was very noisy from passing trucks & traffic. Next day I realised there was a window open in the bathroom. Next night was great. Very low price. Good value. Everything I needed.
