The bed is comfortable and the room has almost everything we need for an overnight stay. The fridge/freezer is big enough ( a large bar fridge) and the freezer works. Our food stayed cold and our freezer bricks frozen for the next day's travel. We chose to eat outside which meant looking at the front of our vehicle but the chairs and table were already there. A very convenient location when driving between Sydney and the Sunshine Coast.
The bathroom is dated and needs the sink replaced. The shower taps are dated but quirky. The only maintenance problem was the bedside light on the right hand side of the bed which won't tutn off - obviously an electrical problem which we highlighted when we last stayed in the same room on NYE. We knew we had to loosen the globe but that could be dangerous with children.

Cute room layout with one twin and a double. Very clean unit, complementary water/coffee/tea/and little biscuits. Felt homey. Parking right in front of our door, and though I didn’t use it, a clean pool surrounded by hedges and lovely plants. Towels in great shape, comfortable beds. Located close to restaurants and pubs and next to a gas station with great coffee and snacks, yet back from the road and very quiet

The location, availability on New Year's Eve, the parking under cover when storms were around and directly outside the room. The King bed was comfortable (apart from not enough pillows). The refrigerator was big enough and the freezer worked. There were 2 comfortable chairs and 2 tables. The price was OK for the holiday period. We will return.
There were only 3 pillows and we like 2 each! The bathrooms are dated but perfectly adequate.

We were concerned about traffic noise when we booked but we couldn't hear a thing. Bed was exceptionally comfortable and we greatly appreciated the free upgrade to separate beds! The room was comfortable, tidy and well maintained. Much better quality rooms than most in the price range
The pool didn't look very clean

Made to feel welcome. Very helpful with recommendations for breakfast as their kitchen is still under repairs after recent floods.
Soap, shampoo and conditioner containers had been recently installed, but unfortunately didn’t work. After informing the manager he was disappointed they didn’t work as they had cost a lot of money to install. The soap dispenser worked over the sink and the soap had a pleasant smell. I also informed them that some of the buttlons on the TV handset wasn’t working. The manager a;pologised, but I said it wasn’t his fault but the manufacturers.

Our late arrival was no issue as keys to the room were easily obtained after office closing hours. The location was great for an easy getaway in the morning. Very handy having hotel and mini supermarket supplies adjacent to the premises. Very cosy and well-equipped room. We'll be a return customer.

Excellent size bed very comfortable. Good Size room, very clean.
The bathroom had a sewerage smell from the bathroom drain that was not very pleasant. Also the TV wouldnt connect to the hotel wifi which was really odd being it was a smart TV

Super friendly staff, convenient location. Clean and excellent hot water!
The light outside was a bit bright at night but just had to position the curtain more carefully to block it out

Lovely fresh clean linen, simple rooms, very close to a tavern with great meals.Rooms are very clean, easy parking. Host is very friendly and has great communication. We were attending a wedding in Alstonville and the hotel is just a few minutes away
It is a little difficult to spot the driveway entry at night but with some practice we managed it

Room was very neat and today and had all the basics needed for a short stay. Bed was very comfy. very convenient location with shops near by including a tavern next door.
Motel is on a main road so quite noisy. if you’re a light sleeper pack ear plugs at it’s on a busy main road. Laundry service truck arrived at 6.30am - too early.
