10/10
Reviewed Aug 10, 2026The electric blanket control switch on the right side of the bed facing the bathroom needs to be looked at. The light on the blanket control is not staying on all the time when on first option.

Reviewed Jul 21, 2026The room was spacious, comfortable and clean. The staff were friendly and helpful.
We didn’t realise the spa wasn’t in working order. The gym facilities were run down and dirty.

Reviewed Jul 15, 2026Great location close to central city. Room layout was awesome. Double spa bath was amazing!
The shower was not great. The pillows were awful - looked puffy but went flat as soon as you out your head down.
8/10
Reviewed Jul 12, 2026The 2 bed unit nearest the road was surprisingly quiet at night. We had all we needed for our stay. The location is excellent, with a short walk to the Plaza and The Square for shopping and food. Fast EV car chargers walking distance at Pak n Save so you can plug in then wait in your accomodation until charged.
The motel building itself is a little dated with single glazing but this did not really affect our stay.Could do with a better hairdryer in that unit.

Reviewed Jul 11, 2026The unit was spacious. It had a full functioning kitchen.
Condensation built up and stayed in the bathroom. The bathroom could do with an extractor fan.
7/10
Reviewed Jul 7, 2026It was handy to the city. Simple and somewhat spacious.
Kitchen facilities only had one tea towel, no sponge and no ladle. Cleaner knocked a huge “thud” at 9:45am which is quite uncomfortable when you want some privacy or wanting to rest up to the last minute.
