The old orange curtains had holes & were falling down. They were that thin that the curtains didn’t block out any sunlight . Plus the street lights shon straight through the thin curtains. We all had a terrible nights sleep.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Firstly I booked a flight and hotel package. Great price but when I got there I realised why. I was placed in a old tired room. Fridge was leaning, no shelves or bottle racks. Mould in places in shower. It was not at all like the bright photo shown on this site. Mine was dark grey and very tired. Paint chipped. Just run down overall. Some rooms on other side looked like they had been redone but not my section. So false advertising. It was very close to shopping so that was a bonus. I could hear music until the early hours and the bed was not comfy. The view from the window was run down back yards of businesses. I would not book here again for this single room.

Excellent location, very friendly and helpful staff. Furnishings could be updated. One window wouldn't lock which gave us a bit of a feeling of insecurity. The room door and lock were awful.

Bang for the Buck Very Good Motel
Staff was very friendly. Room was comfortable. Bathroom needed to be "refreshed", meaning there was what appeared to be mildew in the cracks in the shower and walls, however, you could tell it was cleaned, just needed to be repainted/repaired. Restaurants were good. The pool was refreshing, and having laundry facilities was great. Bang for the buck this is a very good motel.

Have stayed here several times in the past on way to Darwin and return and have always recommended to friends to stay there. This time was disappointed with condition of room bed looked like it was made by a 5 year old and curtains wouldnt cover window properly had to use sheet to cover gaps. Would recommend owners have a serious look at how the hotel is being run.
