Great value for money and perfect for somewhere to stay while working in the area. Bistro meals were a little pricey but the food was good and the serving was generous. The rooms were spotlessly clean and the bed was comfortable however the motel in general could do with renovation.

This is a very family friendly venue. The restaurant features an extensive menu with lots of dietary options and a great kids menu. As no breakfast is available on site it would have been great to have a toaster or microwave wave in the room.

Rooms are older but very clean, spacious & had everything you need for a short stay. Rooms are at the back of the property so no traffic, restaurant or sports bar noise, it was very quiet. Would stay again.
