Third time in the past couple of years we have stayed here, it’s getting a little dated but perfectly adequate for a short stay

Didn't like the ramp from the bedroom to the kitchnette area - you expect a step in the middle of the night if getting up in the dark not a ramp :) Other than that it was clean and tidy and the front desk was very helpful on arrival

Reasonable value for money and good set up for a cheap breakfast. Neighbour was playing music and dropping loud f-bombs at frequent intervals from about 4am.

It is time for an update to the place as it’s looking pretty worn. The jug worked but the water tasted metallic, the top of the pan didn’t fit properly, the light above the single bed was missing and the front door really was in need of a paint job. Not real value for the price.

The property is old and basic but very clean.
My issue is the deodorisers and smelly plug in things in the room. Even after removing it and putting it outside, the room smelled too strong and I couldn’t sleep.

We had the corner apartment with river views. Good value accommodation with a seperate double bedroom, comfortable twin beds in the living space (instead of a sofa bed), a lounge suite and kitchen. A little dated but perfectly fine for our needs.

Good sized bedroom and bathroom. Steep step into shower - this may be problematic for some. Also, steep carpeted stairs up to the first floor unit. Need to take a lot of care when carrying luggage. Friendly staff and comfortable bed. Reasonably quiet despite heavy trucks using nearby road.

Great kitchen and bathroom. Separate bedroom.

Impressed with cleanliness of motel. Sadly the beds are old and so this made for a less than comfortable night sleep. Staff friendly and helpful with suggestions of what to see and do. For price, overall happy with our stay. Be mindful of road noise in front upstairs units!

We paud for accommodation, received a confirmation email from Expedia 'advising that Riverview have confirmed the booking and there is no need to contact the Hotel to confirm'. However upon arrival at Hotel (fully booked) and no room for us. After 2hrs on telephone to Expedia, we eventually stayed in a hostel for the night. No refund or compensation! :-( 😞

Lovely views from our unit but unfortunately the noise from the road is constant until late at night and then starts up at about 4.30 am.
Clean and spacious motel unit and lovely to have the separate bedroom
