Overnight & convenient
The motel was aged but comfortable for an overnight stay. There was no body soap in the shower & the basin tap had a leak.
Value for money though & convenient for eateries.

I was quiet and close to facilities we needed but it was a very run down property in major need of a refurbishment. the painting was very scruffed, the bathroom had mould in the cracked tiles, a louvre in the bathroom window was missing and the cabinetry was old and marked. It was also somewhat dirty with the surfaces feeling sticky and having a strong smell of disinfectant. Not at all up to its rating and the photos of the facility were very misleading. We were forced to find alternate accommodation at quite some additional cost.

We booked Raceways Motel in a hurry to stay for half a day while waiting for a connecting flight. We made the mistake pf not reading comments.
Short stay at this motel is the most horrible motel experience we’ve had.
1. Room stink.
Requested to change the room, a different room was given, it was a bit better than the initial room given, but still stunk.
2. Room not clean.
There was stain, which appears to be blood stain on the counter top.
The bedsheets were not clean. I am allergic to dust mites, I started itching less than an hour being on the bed (another customer had commented on the dust mites). Cupboards were dirty. (pictures attached)
3. Toilet not cleaned.
Little baby cockroach on the sink 😊 (zoom picture attached).
Wiring exposed. Commode bowl was stained.

The manager of the motel was lovely and helpful, unfortunately the state of the room was disappointing. Cockroaches and bugs and the room stank of mould. There was also a what seemed permanent resident there who was very aggressive towards the manager and other guest. Police was called. We had to stay for the full 6nights unfortunately as were not in the position to get another motel, in that time we did not have our room cleaned once. We had to request clean towels and they smelt like they had sat in the washing machine for days. I hate leaving bad reviews but this motel has potential just needs a good clean up

It is not at all what we expected when we booked. The pictures online are old and make the Motel look more inviting but when you arrive and open your room door not at all inviting. I will not be staying there again.
