Wayfarer Motel or Bates Motel?
On approach it appears like a motel from a Midwest American slasher film.
The trees and grass are overgrown and all the greenery on the motel itself is dead and dying.
I have expected to find Norman Bates manning the reception desk.
You receive the combination to your room on a Post-it note and I’m unlocking the door you find it won’t lock again.
The rooms are small but adequate and to be honest for what you pay they’re okay.
It has to be mentioned that the bathroom had a stool straight out of the 1970s, which is the one that looks like a plastic picnic salt and pepper shaker.
When you try to shower at 7 o’clock in the morning there is no water coming out of the hot water pipe, you’ll find out later in the day that they have it turned off and you have to ask for it to be on the next morning.
The staff are pleasant and helpful, though they can only work with what they’ve got.
I won’t be staying there next year.

Very average room but clean enough. Poor quality mattress and the shower had no pressure at all.
Photos of this property were obviously taken 10 years ago! So run down. I’ve stayed in many motels all over the country/world and this would have to be the worst place we’ve ever stayed.
There were hairs on the pillows. My kids complained of being able to feel what felt like dirt at the end of the bed.
The door between main bedroom and kids bedroom didn’t close! Bathroom doors didn’t close and looked so dirty!
I don’t think floor had been mopped between stays! No soap supplied!
No room key given! Just a written key code on a post it note!
Seriously don’t know how this place is still running!
Save your money or spend $30 more and stay elsewhere!
couldn't pay me to stay there again, my door code expired a day before I was due to check out. No staff were in the office or around the motel, no one answered phone after 6 hours of being locked out I had to call a lock smith to break into the room for me, left voice mails and a personal message, no one contacted me after I left to tried to make anything right

Budget accommodation at reasonable price
Rooms out the back are decent 3-star standard, with signs of wear and tear but clean and functional. Front of building looks very rundown and cannot comment on these rooms. Owner was very helpful.
This would be my in my top 3 of worst motels ever stayed in. We were allocated room 15 after our room 1 was not ready at 2.45pm at check in.
The room was grubby, dusty and in dire need of renovation. The bathroom ceiling mouldy. Curtains ill-fitting and torn in places. I have photos to back up my assessment. Never again.
Located on the main street but towards the southern end of town. Exterior of the property could use some attention (tidy up). No frills but a comfortable night's stay.

Some necessary updates were done to the room but more needs to be done to justify the price. Grounds were terrible.
