Close to the park. Generally, a decent enough place to stay. A $100 deposit was requested, which I did not notice on any of the info given on the motel. When the EFTPOS machine didn't work, I was asked if I had enough money (worked the second time with a different method). There was an incident at about 1:30 AM where a person was persistently yelling and knocking at a different unit and lasted for at least 30 min intermittently.

We really enjoyed our short stay. The Receptionist was lovely and helpful. The premises was clean, tidy and homely. It could do with an update though however that did not take away from the hospitality or comfort.
We would stay here again.
Thank you

Pros. Cheap. Central location. Comfy bed. Clean enough. Last minute booking for an overnight stay. We were delayed on the road & called ahead. They waited 90mins past the final check in time for us, very kind.

It was very last minute so I was really happy with the accommodation. I felt it did smell a bit damp and the bathroom light wasn't working. I also found a hoodie hanging on the back of the bathroom door.
