Lovely river views . Good Chinese food in restaurant . Other food options in restaurant restricted.
Small shower.
Plastic shopping bag over smoke sensor (?) reason?
No freezer in fridge and fridge did not lower temperatures significantly.
Older style motel in a beautiful location on the banks of the Hastings River. Set well back from the road so very quiet. Excellent quality Chinese Restaurant attached to the motel.
The TV was not working kept pixilating. By the time I turned it on the office was closed so I didn’t complain to them about it.
Very friendly at the front desk the motel is set way back from the road so it was nice and quiet.
I enjoyed my overnight stay in a room with a view of the river and the restaurant which served a delicious sweet and sour pork.
Definitely stay there again when I travel to Brisbane.
Charged extra for early check in even though there was a room made up and ready,pool was dirty and full of dead bugs,grounds around the river were dirty untidy
