We stayed here for a hockey carnival for a total of 4 nights. The room was spacious and clean. The owner was very helpful and approachable. The motel has a laundry facility and a toaster and microwave in the room, which was really helpful to us.

Parking was easy and the manager allowed car to be parked under cover because impending storm. The room was clean and although advertised as executive, the room was basic. The water pressure in the shower was excellent, although it took some time for the hot water to arrive. Noise was not an issue event though close to 2 fuel outlets.

A good place to stay overnight. The room was large and clean with a comfortable bed, pretty much all that was required. Parking available outside the door. The pub nearby was a good option for eating.

Great staff .... after a very long day working, I unfortunately locked myself out of my room. Hot take away food, no warm clothing (as I took my coat off when entering the room) very grim thinking of the machinations of getting back into my room. Amazingly, a simple phone call and I was connected with the most lovely person... extremely helpful and with an amazing caring sense of humour. She sorted out the situation quick smart. I have stayed her three weekends in a row - and will do so in the future. That simple, helpful and non judgemental help was just what I needed after a 12 hours on working in a very busy restaurant. Also this angel - had my Chefs Uniform (left the previous weekend) at the front desk upon check in. Yes a no frills hotel however the staff make it grand. Many thanks and look forward to seeing Stephen and Kerrie (please be right) very soon!
