It’s near the road so there’s a bit of traffic noise. Also one of the guests had a car alarm that kept going off, loudly and lengthily, every few minutes (no fault of the motel). The tv remote was gross (we cleaned it with hand sanitizer). Otherwise pretty good, standard motel facilities. The reception was excellent. Checking out was easy.

Motel itself was great … However other guests in nearby rooms sitting outside talking and smoking at night were very annoying . We had driven from Sunshine Coast that day and had another 8hr drive ahead of us …. Perhaps there could be a smoking area located away from the rooms as the smoke came into our room !

Room is very clean and bed pretty comfortable. The toilet unfortunately has a leak and there is a continuous water inlet sound. I turned off the tap so not a biggie. I usually BBQ when I travel but unfortunately, although the BbQ was clean there was not gas bottle. All in all not a bad experience and would certainly stay there again. Many thanks
