Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Since the last time I stayed here new owners have purchased and renovated, and the Motel has a nostalgic Palm Springs vibe. There is coin operated laundry facilities and kettle, tea/coffee/milk and a fridge. Power to the room remains when you go out, so the fridge will keep your food and drinks cold.
Negative: Being run unexpectedly while traveling to Wollongong and being asked to hand over my credit card details as a safety deposit.When I asked to sort it out early the next morning I was given the option to call the office number on arrival so that I could access my key from a safe, when I did this, it turned out that I had contacted a third party who said “I think they sent an email about this” when asked if I wanted to go ahead I was a bit surprised because it was after 8pm and I had nowhere else to go so really didn’t have a choice. It was only earlier the week that booking.com scams had been in the press. I really think that if you’re the kind of person who is going to damage the property handing over your credit card details is not much of a deterrent.
