    We travelled to have a quiet and romantic night away from work and stressful life only to have the manager came bashing on our door twice waking us up. Have stayed at many motels over the years for both pleasure work. Have NEVER....had a manager disturb our privacy. Motel facilities were ok. EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED

    This motel is just what we needed, no frills but all that was necessary to spend a relaxing overnight on a long drive from Atherton to Brisbane. We stayed there heading south and again on returning north. There is also adequate parking for trailers and trucks etc. food outlets nearby and friendly staff.

    This is a "no frills" motel having been revamped but it lacks nothing for the traveller staying overnight, freezing the ice bricks, filling the thermos, and relaxing in a comfy bed and viewing a TV that works. Food outlets nearby and a friendly helpful Hostess. The place also affords plenty of parking space for trailers and even trucks.

    The Motel catered foir meals delivered to the room which was very convenient for us after a full day on the road. Also the view from our room was marvellous, overlooking the Coral Sea. The general feeling of the place and the Owner was that it was "old fashioned" which suited us oldies just fine. it also catered for pets, which we didn't need though.

    location is brilliant. The room was very VERY clean....the cleaning staff were extremely friendly and very good at their job - congrats to them! ( I have managed 5 star Hotels in my time and would have employed those girls!). The bed was very comfy as were the pillows, and we had extra ones in the cupboard which was a bonus! Also the linen was of good quality. We've stayed in some shockers; your Motel rooms may be a little old but the quality and cleanliness makes up for all that.

    The staff were exceptional, especially the cleaning staff. The accommodation is well located to walk into town and a number of newly refurbished hotels are offering excellent meals. Access to wifi is an issue for some of the rooms but the managers are aware of the difficulties and have been actively working with their providers to establish a reliable connection. There is a very good barbecue to use and the guest laundry is a bonus for those travelling for a period of time. We really enjoyed our five day stay.
