The motel is well located, with good parking. The room was fine, however the cleanliness isn’t good. They clean around everything, not under things, into corners etc. there was no room service. I’d call it budget accommodation at best.

The staff are very helpful. Twin Peaks is very dated. The carpet in our room was terrible and needed to be replaced. The room was very shabby. The only good thing is the pub next door for dining options.

Room was ‘tired’, could do with a refresh. The rubbish bin had 2 sides, the side with a lid hadn’t been emptied. I had to call reception who sent up someone to fix the ranchslider door (only external entry) as it wouldn’t open. It had come off the rails and was ok once she’d fixed it. Staff were friendly and helpful.
