We recently stayed at Classic Twin room for one night. The motel was still under renovation, so wifi was not available at the time of our stay which was not a problem to us. The newly renovated room was very spacious and cosy and we loved it. The only issue we encountered was we felt the bed and pillows were not in good condition. Loretta Lau

The room was excellent, service was accomadating and pleasant. realise there is some things that need to fix but all is in hand as I understand ( wifi and restaurant) I would have liked a bitmore water pressure for the show ( Room 10) all the complaints are minor and a easy fix. Location is superb. will go there again in 5 months

Disliked: Amenities
Location is good but the property is in poor condition and at circa $300 a night (which is what we paid for a very basic 2x1 room) it is poor value. Nothing in promotional material indicates restaurant is closed (probably a very long time ago). Compared to similarly priced properties in Geraldton, such as Broadwater and Hospitality Inn, it is a rip off.

Unavailable wifi not stated upfront before booking. Blankets supplied not for all beds. Very hot water runs from cold taps before water becomes cold - dangerous with young children. Bathroom floor easily flooded due to inappropriate shower curtain lengrh. TV remote missing backing - does not always work with batteries not being secured by cover.
