The office should open till 6pm, when we turned up 5:10pm, no one was around.

The wifi password written on the key pad and on the wall in the room but it didn't work.

The room was very dated, the kitchen cupboards and drawers couldn't be closed properly, the shower wall leaked water after being used.

Basically we were rather disappointed.

Overall, a nice stay. The room was clean and tidy, and everything we needed to cook and use was provided. The amenities were good such as the hot tub was really nice, and although the pool wasn’t the cleanest, it was still okay.

The ladies at reception were super friendly and lovely, which made the experience much better. However, the customer service I received over the phone when booking wasn’t great and came across as quite rude, which was disappointing and made the journey there a bit stressful. Thankfully, the in-person staff were completely different.

Aside from that, the motel itself is nice and comfortable.

Everything about this motel was inadequate
No smoke alarms
The room stunk of overused cleaning products
The bed was very old & hard
The curtains across the entry door didn’t fit
The aircon was a broken fan
The entry door had a window beside it so easily unlocked
The shower floor was spongy & felt unsafe
The internet was not going
The toilet seat should have been replaced years ago
The pool looked green
We are very disappointed as the photos on the motel portrayed a very different room
The receptionist was rude

Really enjoy staying at this motor lodge, hot water is instant, clean, comfortable beds and fairly warm without needing a heater, highly recommended if you are needing a stay in the far far north, plus they supply hand wash, shampoo and body wash

A welcoming smile would be nice.

The rooms were clean, no air-conditioning but 2 fans which worked a treat. The welcome at reception was non existent along with any volunteered information, too hot for spa! no laundry facilities but still listed on hotels.com also very confusing re parking as on hotel.com no parking but as soon book parking is included!

We didn't like that there was no air-conditioning and no security screens and the door could be easily unlocked by accessing an opened window.
The mattress was way too soft

Clean and comfortable. Good location.

Clean and comfortable and close to shops and service station. Pool onsite but spa not operational which was a bit disappointing. Helpful staff.

Amazing stay, love the owners dog Sunday who is the resident pet for everyone who stays. Very clean and welcoming. Spacious and has all amenities from stove top, fridge, microwave and toasters... so if you dont want to hunt for dinner on the main street you can cook for your own (warning Sunday will come visit you for a sneaky snack)

The property is old and mutton dressed up as lamb . Very poor WiFi could not even use it only 1 bar and speed rating would not even connect. Didn’t supply any fresh milk and was told if we wanted milk for our morning coffee needed to walk down to the local shops and buy our own . The shower was very slippery and no slip mat was provided very dangerous as my wife is partially disabled and had problems stepping into it . The only positive we have for the place was the warm blanket on the bed otherwise it has been the worst place we have stayed so far

Impeccably clean, if somewhat quaint small motel in the north.

Minimal sound or thermal insulation, a good heater is bolted to the wall in the kitchen/lounge area but not the bedroom. In mid July that could be a problem. Traffic noise from 5am so you won’t need an alarm clock. Good well appointed kitchenette and bathroom.

A small column heater to take the chill from the bedroom would be ideal. Otherwise good for its price class and location.

Clean, friendly and accommodating.

I stay at this location every year for a night or 2 when visiting family who live a short walk away. The owners are always friendly and have often gone above and beyond.

They provide a satisfactory and convenient location, supplying the basics needed and recommend for families, especially if needing privacy.

A very convenient and comfortable motel

We only stayed one night but we really enjoyed our it. The room was very comfortable and it was very convenient with the main bedroom and the lounge also having a bed. The kitchen and bathroom were also of a good standard.
Although the motel was close to the main road little noise could be heard.
There was a pool which we didn’t have time to use but we did use the children’s swings and the large garden. The motel is also very close to a supermarket. Overall we were impressed with this motel and would definitely stay here again

Be aware upfront there's no AC, but I suspect there's but AC at many places out this far and it wasn't needed. They kindly provided desk fans in the closet that I luckily opened to see what was there and that was all that was needed.

Location is on the outskirts of town but very conveniently right next to a Pak n Save, Warehouse, and McDonalds.

Nice kitchen and bathroom and shower. Has a separate bedroom and a bed in the main room so lots of sleeping space for bigger parties.
