The bedspread in the lounge had a stain on it. The glassware was dirty so we cleaned all the crockery before using it. The beds were very uncomfortable and you could hear everything from the unit above us. There was also water coming over their balcony in the morning dripping into our outside space.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Run down property, not what we saw in the photos (photos weren’t extraordinary anyway). Lot of things are broken/ damaged and needing immediate maintenance and repairs. Shower is so slow, bathroom/ spa is just dirty in general. We noticed on our day 3, when we were returning from our breakfast that our room was open and nobody was there and a tradie walked in who said he was trying to fix the Antenna dor TVs in the motel. I think it would be polite and professional for motel to ask/ let the customer know that their room will be accessed in the absence by a third party tradesmen, Motel staff wasn’t even supervising this. Won’t recommend, specially not for a longer stay.

A lot of money wasted

I usually try to find something positive to say, but this time I can't. When our adult son saw the place we were staying in, he immediately booked us into a different motel for the night. No electric heating, staff member came, pretended the thermal heating had been switched on and then left. An hour later it still wasn't heating the room. My husband went out and brought an electric heater before our son arrived on the scene. I have never previously taken photos of our accommodation that I would share on a review. This place needs a real make over and it will be a very long time before we book here again. Even the net curtains were mismatched unhemned and not even cut straight. It is not allowing me to upload photos For some reason it was booked under our sons name but my husband and I were the guests.

DO NOT STAY HERE! Upon arrival at the property we were approached by a local who was there to buy drugs from another tenant. The property did not feel like a safe place for my family. Room was disgusting. Sticky carpet and floor surfaces. Black mould and green mould was visible in multiple parts of the room. Found cigarette burns on the bed linen. Mirrors were cracked and chipped, paint peeling everywhere, dining chairs in room where covered in dust, crockery/cutlery was not cleaned from previous guests. TV did not work. Photos online must be 10 years old. Maintenance is badly needed everywhere. When we confronted the staff about the state of our room they denied all of our observations. Staff did offer to clean the room, but we respectfully declined and asked for a refund. The manager refused to refund any of our money despite only staying 1 of 3 nights booked. Very bad experience.
