The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Cozy Unit

I stayed in a Double Studio Unit and was amazed by how immaculately clean and nicely decorated it was. The room was cozy, featuring a comfortable bed and a good-sized kitchen bench. The shower was very good, and I loved having free on-site parking and Wi-Fi. This place is a gem for an overnight stay!

Delicious Bistro

During my stay, I dined at the Wharf Street Bistro. The food was absolutely fantastic! I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a great dining experience during their visit. It was the perfect way to wind down after a day of activities.

5.0/10

Our stay at Walton Park Motor Lodge was quite disappointing. The location was convenient for overnight travel, but the room left much to be desired with its stale smoke odor and poor cleanliness. The service we received was brief but adequate. Unfortunately, we felt the value for money was lacking due to the condition of the facilities and room.

Rooms

The room was large but had a strong stale cigarette smoke smell. It also showed signs of wear with paint chips and stains, making it feel very uninviting.

Service

Service was no-frills; check-in was quick, but lacking warmth and friendliness.

The hotel is right off a busy highway, making it easy to find but also quite noisy throughout the night with constant traffic.

We found a real gem during our long road trip. The hotel provided us with ample space and warmth, perfect for our family getaway. It was clean and tidy, which made our stay quite pleasant. The only downside was some minor inconveniences regarding the room amenities, but overall, a great choice for families looking for comfort on a budget.

5.0/10

Unfortunately, my stay at Walton Park Motor Lodge was quite disappointing. The room I was given was not at all what I expected based on the photos online; it had a strong smell of stale smoke and was in dire need of updates. The issues with the TV, leaking tap, and stained bathroom only added to my frustration. While it did have a convenient location, the overall condition of the motel made it a poor value for the price.

Rooms

5.0

The room was nothing like the online photos and had a strong stale smoke odor. It was also quite run down with visible stains and marks.

Service

5.0

The management was somewhat accommodating, but ultimately, the experience did not make up for the poor room quality.

Location

6.0

The motel was located right by a busy highway, which added to the noise but was also near some restaurants.
