This is an older style motel with good basic facilities. The room rate is good if you need to stay in Canberra for a number of nights. Also, it is in walking distance to the light rail stop into the city Centre.

You get what you pay for. The complex and room was very clean, but maintenance was lacking. Chipped tile in bathroom, taps would not turn off completely and shower curtain placed to cover where door used to be. Wanted twin beds which seemed hard to find in city area. Beds were not really comfortable but heating was good.
