- Brydie (9/5): -

- Paul (8/5): - Convenient location. Very powerful shower. Easy check in and check out. Ordering breakfast the night before for an early start is a good service. It was fine. A bit dated but clean and comfortable enough.

- Amigo (8/5): - Sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit Personal freundlich Hauptstraße neben Motel
- Rachael (8/5): Exceptional service, comfort and location. Loved the a./c, soundproofing and black out curtains. - We were very worried that staying on a main road would lead to excess noise in our room, but the sound proofing was excellent and the black out curtains combined with awesome air conditioning gave us the comfort and privacy to sleep in after a very long day travelling. Diane was exceptional, friendly and welcoming and we were very pleased with the pool and laundry facilities. Maintenance staff was very kind to put off treating the pool when I expressed that the children would like to swim while I attended to business and he even asked us if we had already used the shower prior to turning off water to fix a leak in the room next door. I was provided with a late check out upon request and excellent communication around check in when I was concerned that I might not make it on time after a long drive. Motel is very close to takeaway businesses, fuel stations and grocery stores.
- Lylia (5/5): -

- Ana Liza (10/5): -
- Loretta (8/5): Lovely motel and facilities. - Lovely receptionist, very clean, lots of lovely touches in the room (face washer for makeup removal, nice shampoo and conditioner tubes), car parking right in front of the unit and partly under cover. Smoking occurs outside the front door of ground floor units which means you run the gauntlet when unpacking your car and leaving the unit. I would have scored the property a 10 if smoking was elsewhere at the property.

- Terry (9/5): Staff were great, location is OK, facilities were fine. - Location is right on the Freeway, so plenty of road noise but the place itself is fine. Rooms were OK, not too hot. The lady at the desk was great. Laundry access was good a well. Access to the pool is a bit of assignment, but I think that is out of their hands.
- Bibina (7/5): - Stanza grande con letti comodi. Personale gentilissimo. Aeroporto a pochi minuti di auto dalla struttura. Doccia e bagno migliorabili. Stanza un po' vecchiotta ma comunque comoda per chi è di passaggio. Posizione non comoda per chi non è automunito. Struttura situata su una strada trafficata e di passaggio.
