Stayed on a one nighter. rooms have been refurbed with a paint and some obvious new appointments. Clean 'box like' accommodation. Would still need to improve to command equal value for money. Any more than a weekend here and the faults list would grow. Vanities and mirrors out of an older era and show deferred maintainence. Service pleasant, bar prices... More

We stayed there after a long haul jouney. We met with friendly greeting and warm welcome. Room was clean and reasonable at the price we paid. We were happy with that and had a quiet night sleep. It's very close to the shopping mall and restautrants. It's a comfortable walk to the park and the centre of the city which... More

Basically, you can get everything you need in this motel. Location is excellent which is close to Westfield Shopping Centre. 50MB free internet usage is good for me. More
