    They were so helpful. In changing rooms as I couldn't climb stairs. They were booked out so they carried the single bed upstairs so it was a triple. And the down stairs was a queen. Not many place's would bend over backwards like they did.

    The room was perfect for our needs, comfortable and close to public transport. The train station and tram stop is a 5 minute walk. Restaurants, pubs and shops are a short walking distance. Finding the motel was very easy as well.

    This is a standard 60’s, family run, old fashioned motel. It is nicely maintained with a renovated, very nice bathroom with a huge basin top to set your cosmetics bag on (with room to spare), and a fantastic light and mirror!! We had a twin room...
