Excellent location and room in excellent condition. Staff were lovely and very accommodating. My only feedback would be that the bathroom needs more towel hooks and perhaps a shelf in the shower for soaps etc. We will be returning

A beautifully renovated property. Loved the retro aesthetic carried throughout the whole establishment. Everything was as new and very clean. Comfortable bed, soft towels and soap that smelt of lollies. The only downsides, the traffic is very loud of a Friday and Saturday evening and the parking is limited.

A step back in time with a touch of 70s glam retro

The hippest and coolest motel I’ve ever stayed in. The bed was super comfy. Nice retro 70s glam style throughout. Will be coming back for sure.

Liked: Cleanliness
Lovely style and quality renovations. I stayed at a room at the end of the building and noise was constant - traffic outside, tv and talk from next room. Bathroom layout was tricky - had to sit sideways on toilet or have knees under the hand basin. Parking spots are tiny but parking available on street after event nearby finishes.
