Didn't realize that front desk closed at 5pm. Had to find wifi in order to figure out how to check-in. The advertisement should state that front desk closes at 5pm. Next time I'll call the motel to confirm booking.

There was road work the whole night of our stay. We needed a place to rest before our big drive to Sydney early next morning. We weren’t told there was planned road work just outside our room, the whole night long, the drilling etc was terrible. Was a very tiring drive the next day. The smell of cleaning chlorox was so strong when you enter the unit

Just an average motel. Didn't like the office closing at 5.00, making late check-in difficult.
