    It’s very old and requires a major renovation. I’m surprised the building code hasn’t insisted on removal of the asbestos roof. The spare blanket had bed bugs in it.

    The hot shower was the best I’ve ever had. Like Niagara Falls.

    The room was very small with just enough space for a double bed and a small table. Bathroom facilities worked ok but were very dated. The entire place needed modernising or at least a fresh coat of paint. I should not expect too much more for the price!

    Not much. The room was clean but very shabby. At the price paid it was just adequate for two people.

    Unbelievable road traffic noise all night - both from the Highway and especially from heavy road trucks leaving the nearby refinery. Impossible to sleep.

    We needed a place close to the Ship to Tasmania - the Motel was a 7 minute drive away.

    Not the same as the pictures online, didn't have washing up facilities and the sink was also the basin to brush teeth in and wash hands and did not think that was hygienic, other people smoking outside came though bathroom window which made us sick and no option to close it.

    The floor was dirty and the shower needed a good clean with bleach as the tiles were very slippery which isn't good when i had a 4 year old with me. And also the family room was right in the corner of the motel under a stair case which isnt ideal if there is an evacuation situation.

    The floors, skirtings, doors were chipped and ugly. Take out the old aircon. Put a table in for the other side of the bed.

    Look you were trying as the bathroom had been recently redone and the bed was ok and there was an airconditioner that worked. It was clean too with clean linen and towels. But generally the place had a derelict feel as if you had just started renovating an unused building. The doors, cupboards, skirtings and curtain rails were shoddy and chipped and felt in need of replacing. There was no view of a garden outside the window. Keep on improving it and I may recommend it.....

    Couldn't even have a shower without it flooding within minutes, swear word graffiti in rooms, the kitchen sink sprays water everywhere when turned on a little bit. I won't be back $150 for a room which wouldn't even be classed as liveable very disappointed.

    A bit of road noise. Fairly run down and in need of some repairs. Previous guest had left with the key and they didn’t have a spare so he had to come and let us into the room each time we left.

    Clean sheets and towels.
