Spent a night here, room was small but adequate, bathroom fine with good water pressure. Room was warm, bed very soft and we slept well. For the $90 We were more than happy, didn't care if hotel was dated we just needed a bed. Didn't use the restaurant but looked busy enough. Free close car parking was appreciated in the... More

This hotel is older style but all rooms we have had have been updated, spotlessly clean and very well maintained. The cost is fabulous and the added bonus of breakfast is wonderful. We have stayed two times now and definitely will again soon. The inner garden is spectacular. Staff friendly and efficient. Well done Cargills!

We chose this motel on the basis of its excellent location (close to the city) and the lovely photographs of the courtyard garden. We discovered, however, that the property is older and more “lived in” than we expected. The building looks tired and “down-at-heel”. Our motel room was OK though – on the ground floor, large and recently painted in... More

I agree with recent TA reviewers - the bedrooms + fittings are tired and in desperate need of a revamp. Our room was small but the bed was large and comfy - so had a reasonable nights sleep once the people in the room above had settled down, however they were up early - 6am and we couldn't get back...

This hotel is very tired. The fridge in the bedroom was very noisy and the upstairs walkway, which looks close to demolition time, was very creaky and loud when in use. However, the rooms are large and the bed comfortable. The staff are friendly and helpful and it's only a fairly short walk to the CBD.
