The rooms are spacious. That was the best thing to be said. But msjor issues... wotif the hotel have suppied very out of date photos. Rooms and all amenities very run down. The photos still show things like breakfast supplied and business centre. These dont exist. Rooms are cleaned by the caretaker family so not done thoroughly. Rooms are run down. And they had introduced a new thing while we arrived. There were teabags for making tea but when we asked about milk we were told it was no longer supplied with our room rate. The room was not cheaper than other motels in the area. I was a little confused the venue is called a hotel, but it didnt have any catering options and the ammenities supplied were less than other motels. Wotif should not list it as a hotel. We were ok for two nights but it is nit good for extended time

Rooms were clean, parking is first in first served and a warning for thise that smoke or vape on the premises outside on site its a $250 fine. On check in the cleaners were still getting rid of rubbish and laundry outside the rooms I'm guessing they had alot of guests. No tea towels or kitchen sink for doing dishes or stove top but had a extraction fan. Good for a hassle free short stay.
