There was air conditioning which was very good. We were disappointed that the pool was empty, we were offered to use the pool at the next motel but didn't want to venture there.

The motel is on the market, it’s all a bit rundown and dated but I had a reasonable night there. Woolworths supermarket just across the road was very handy.
