Expected a bit better
The room was generally clean. The bathroom door was very loud and squeaky. Everyone in the whole complex could hear when someone was using the bathroom. The air conditioning unit was caked with dust and mold. The musty smell was not good and we couldn't sleep well. We left early. We hope to get a better room on the return trip.

Filthy Air-conditioner Units
The room generally was clean but the air conditioner was caked with filth and mold. You have to breath musty air all night or open up the front door to ventilate. This was a return stop over. The previous room we stayed in on the way down the coast a week before at Gateshead Tavern Motel was in the the same condition. Clean up the A/C units in the motel rooms and I would definitely consider giving a better review.

Cheap stay.
Good place at a very competitive price but a few noisy neighbours up until 10pm on a Sunday night! Have stayed here previously and a lot quieter but an ok stay.

It is clean and tidy convenient to our appointments we had for my grandsons . We couldn’t get a family room and that was ok , but it was a bit disappointing that there was no you tube in one room as the twins are only 8 and there first time staying in a motel room .

Good location for my job in Redhead.
Negative.
Ironing board but no iron. No plug in the bathroom sink for face washing and shaving. Fan in the bathroom really noisy. Room 2.
No spare blanket. Luck I had read some reviews and I bought my own.
