"I specifically chose this hotel because it was the closest to my child's school. It felt really unique, like the motels you see in movies. However, the hygiene, bedding, and facilities were all excellent; I had a very comfortable stay. The front desk staff and cleaning staff were very friendly, making for a pleasant experience!
I had seen some reviews mentioning noise, perhaps those guests were just unlucky with noisy neighbors, but we stayed for 4 nights and it was very quiet, allowing us to rest well. Hotels in Australia typically don't provide toiletries or slippers, so remember to bring your own! They did provide free tea bags, coffee powder, white sugar, a bottle of mineral water, and a small carton of milk, which was perfect for making a latte in the morning. They even gave us three complimentary drinks, which was a nice touch!
By the way, a $100 deposit (held, not charged) is required at check-in, and it must be paid by credit card, not cash. We checked out on Friday and the deposit was released on Monday morning.
I highly recommend staying here. Not only is it very close to the school, but it's also super close to M-city, making shopping incredibly convenient.
I didn't take many specific photos; the room photos were just quick snaps taken when I was checking out. Other pictures were taken casually when I passed by later."
