Excellent Midway Stop

It was a great midway stop to rest. The rooms were clean, the beds were really comfortable, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. It was also cheaper than any other accommodation nearby, which was a big plus.
They had run out of milk when I arrived, but the manager went out of his way to offer me his personal coffee and tea sachets. That was such a nice gesture and really stood out to me.
The place is a bit run down since it's an older building, but for the price and the comfort, it’s totally worth it. If you’re looking for a simple, affordable, and welcoming place to stay, I’d definitely recommend it.

Average place

It was okay for the price, but it was also nice that it was dog-friendly so that I could enjoy the Christmas holiday with my pup.
The room was cosy, even though the hot water kept dripping from the tap.
wasn't cleanest feeling room or area but for the price and season wasn't a too bad of place to stay.

Shocking

Old and tired.
Incredibly noisy on the main highway.
Very uncomfortable bed , no coat hangers, no ironing board .
Overall I would suggest this is one of the most run down and tired places I have ever stayed in .
The view outside my window from the room says it all !!

Don’t stay here, it’s nasty.

Filthy, and smelly, dirty fridge, floors, bedding, furniture. We stayed less than an hour, decided it was too gross to stay overnight and left. Booking dotcom refunded our stay in full. This place is used as govt. emergency housing and the owner/manager doesn’t seem to care about cleanliness at all. Didn’t correctly wear a mask while we were dealing with him. Didn’t seem fazed that we found the place too dirty to stay at. Don’t even think about staying here. It is disgusting.

Very good location
