We liked that it was nice and quiet at night, going to see the glow worms, and other activities you could do. Waking up to the sounds of birdlife

Whilst our stay was pleasant and the motel well situated for dining options, it requires some maintenance. The room was clean internally the patio area was not. Bathroom vanity basin is split and the hot water would run out despite having a quick shower.

A good medium-sized motel with good service and spacious rooms. Despite being close to the street, the room was quiet and well equipped. The air conditioning is particularly pleasant in summer. So recommended it hits best.

The owner assigned our unit parking spot to another guest when we were out of motel. When we inquired about it, he responded angrily, telling me to find another place to park. I decided to leave the motel as I felt uneasy. I checked out of the motel a day early, even though I had paid for an extra night. I did not request a refund. Additionally, there was no soap or shampoo in the motel. It is highly overrated and overpriced. I will not return there.
