Close to fairy terminal. Cleanliness is an issue - specially the carpet and other areas such as door and fridge etc.

There was nothing we liked about this property. There were trails of ants in the Kitchen we didnt have much food but in our bag where we had crackers chocolates nibbles etc there were many ants The bed was not comfortable linen was clean bed well made. Bathroom had alot of black mould in different areas. Only one chair to sit on at table an armchair very grubby.This is an honest opinion from an x Motel owner.We would not stay or recommend the Motor Lodge or stay ourselves again

I didn't expect there is no stove in the kitchen, it is a motel, there should be a stove, but there is nothing. One of the pillows was used, we found a hair on it. Heater in the shower is not working at all, The other heater in the room was weak, we asked for more blankets, He brought something I don't know what they call and it was disgusting. we didn't use it, we slept with our clothes adding another layer to it. Oh, by the way, there is no Reception in this motel, Yes, no reception. In order to check in, you need to go another motel close to this one. Wiered. 2 chairs there, both were dirty, I think they found it in the street.

The place felt abandoned. No reception at the property. Had to drive further up the road to a partner motel. Glad I didn’t arrive late as that motels reception closed at 9:00 pm. When I did check in there was no one at reception office. Had too wander around the complex and eventually fund a house maid. Not keen on re booking there.
