Stayed in a 3-bedroom unit at this budget-friendly motel and overall, it was a great value for the price. The air conditioning worked perfectly, and the location is super convenient—Woolworths is just a 10 to 15-minute walk away. Mobile reception was strong throughout our stay, which is always a plus. While we didn’t test the TV, Wi-Fi was mostly reliable, though some websites didn’t load properly, requiring a VPN to access them. One minor inconvenience: the bedside power outlet isn’t accessible due to the furniture placement, so the nightstand is pushed right against the wall—had to use an extension cord to charge my phone. Also, no bowls were provided, so we ended up eating out of cups and picked up disposable ones at Woolworths later. The shower floor has a slight slope, causing water to pool in one corner—but easily managed by nudging it down with your foot. No shampoo or toiletries included, which is expected at this price point. Despite these small quirks, nothing was deal-breaking. We’d definitely recommend this place for travelers looking for a no-frills, practical stay near the airport. Just bring your own extension cord, shower essentials, and a few bowls if you’re not planning to buy them on-site.
