Reviews and Ratings
The motel will definitely be our first choice for the upcoming football season in Katherine and surrounds, despite a slight delay in room upgrade upon arrival close to 3 pm. The good coffee barista is a plus point.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were a bit unpleasant due to the smell of cigarettes, high temperature, and cramped space for kids, but the multiple bed options were handy. The staff were a mix of lovely and rude, with some going out of their way to help while others were pushy about early check-out. The location was convenient for exploring the outskirts of Katherine, although it needed a good clean-up. The dining experience was reasonable with a bonus buffet but had additional charges for coffee. Overall, it was a place to catch a meal and some sleep.
The hotel is convenient for exploring Katherine, offering nice strategic location for an overnight stay. The rooms are spacious but lack soundproofing and could use some maintenance work. The service was friendly but a bit slow at the reception. Dining options were decent but could be improved for better quality. The location is good, being only a short drive from the town center, although restocking was slow.
