They we’re really helpful. We arrived late and had trouble with the drop box but they were happy to help out.
Room was pre warmed for our arrival which was great as it was dark and COLD out. Good information kit and close to town.

Well appointed kitchenette.
Nice comfortable bed. Well appointed room with all you would need. No road noise. Not much of a view from the rooms. Motel is within walking distance to major supermarkets, fast food and shopping centre. An easy stroll to the RSL for an excellent meal.
