Terrible customer service, no fan, room was not clean, the smell was disguisting, sheets were not cleaned. Receptionist was rude of the phone hanged up when i didnt finished talking on the phone. Requested for a room change but they said they will send their cleaner to clean the room and check if we need a room change or not. They do not care about customers, I would never book with them again. Outdated worn out.

Overall I liked the property and the area it was in. Close to the hutt river and a little park and other motels. Walking along the river was very healing. I liked the architecture. It seemed very 1980's and like a dutch style. The room was nice and cool and had good solid walls. The bathroom was great. A few things that would've made it better... the light bulb in one of the lamps was out. Flannels are pretty much a necessity to just wipe the day away from the face. Internet connection in and out but that may not be the fault of the motel. With x generation perseverance I just kept reconnecting and eventually we got to watch terminator 2 which was really cool. My thanks to the owners. I enjoyed my stay.

There were no staff at the property for our whole 8 day stay. We stayed over the Christmas period & only had evidence of staff providing new towels on 2 days. Property location is ok if you have a car. Property is quite dated but reasonably clean. Bathroom & kitchen really need to be updated. A very average stay, ok as we were just sleeping there & out all day visiting family.

Arrived and stood around for 20 minutes waiting to get my room. I had prepaid online and the manager told me repeatedly that my payment declined. I showed them my receipt and bank record to prove the money had hone out. I was then told I had to email these to her manager to prove my payment had gone through. All in all, extremely unprofessional, it felt like I was being scammed. Property is dirty and noisy and extremely run down.

Om arrival we were greeted by a locked reception area with a note telling us to ring a number to retrieve our key from a lock box on entering the room it was tidy enough but there were hardly any utensils so I emailed the establishment asking for two forks and the wifi password as there was no instructions left about jow to connect to the "free" wifi it was suffice for wat we needed for our 3 day stay Bed(comfy) Shower(excellent!) I appreciated the fact they placed us in a ground level room but over our two night stay we had very loud people above us Also we were out of our room for a whole day from 11am but there was no cleaning done to our room they decided to come while we were in our room and asked did we need anything? I says yes clean towels pls and our rubbish needs removing So I guess for a cheap room it was suffice and basic

Website needs updating, stuff listed on there was not in the room eg. Iron and ironing board in every room and we had to ask for one. Noisy shower pipework. No handle on shower door. Mirrors all smeared and greasy, couldn't see in them clearly, as was the shower glass. For a five bed room there were only two eating bowls and four plates. Crockery and cutlery needed cleaning before using. Stove top rusted through. Fridge wobbly only had three feet. Noisy stairs. Needs more lounge seating, two person couch for a five bed room. Walls were filthy and need painting. Light shade over lounge area dusty as. Service poor, reception never maned, doorbell and phone outside reception don't work. Could smell cigarette smoke in our room from others smoking. Soap dispenser in bathroom didn't work or the ones in the shower. Can see where a washing machines been removed, all plumbing still visible. Wouldn't recommend this motor inn to anyone to stay at.

I didn't like outside the window looking down at rubbish and old rubbish looking bicycle or the water damage that looks like it is getting moldy in the bathroom. The wallpaper on the other side looked water stained. The TV kept lagging and cutting out. The bed was comfy though.

On our arrival the gentleman at the reception desk was not friendly or co-operative at all, told us to contact their receptionist by phone and sort out the matter with her, unfortunately her attitude was worse than the gentleman at the reception desk and had to contact Wotif to sort out the matter of us wanting to leave a day earlier. The property had no dishwashing liquid so we could wash our dishes, the room was not cleaned or beds made the next day, no WiFi password given, no one maning the reception desk the whole weekend, the list could go on. I will not stay there again or recommend to anyone else.
