The hotel's surroundings are nice, especially suitable for watching the sunset. There are two shared kitchens. The room is very small, the facilities are very old, the hygiene is average, there is a peculiar smell, and the stay experience is not good.

I had 1 night here as a stopover on a longer road trip. The room was clean and had everything I needed for a stopover. The guy who did my check-in seemed a little awkward for someone in hospitality but that's not that big a deal. The big surprise here was the on-site Thai restaurant. Absolutely fabulously authentic food, huge menu, extremely reasonable prices. If it wasn't so far away I would come back for the rendang curry for sure!!

We were regular guests at the motel and even recommended it to friends. But after the extremely rude encounter with the owner over the phone while enquiry about rooms. We will never stay there again. Very upsetting and not called for.She must have had a bad day.

Cleanliness and location are great. If you are in a family group it seems from other reviews that it suits. As an older woman, my experience wasn’t so good. Felt quite threatened by the male manager who reacted very badly to a simple question about having booked a twin v double room and later external lights not turning on. Bamboo motel a few doors down the street felt much safer.

Excellent value. It is a basic motel but everything was good: spacious room, comfortable bed, a working TV, plates and cutlery, teatowel and detergent, good ensuite and hot water and all for a very low price in the middle of Christmas holidays.
