We stayed for a night with our three kids. Check in communication was very straight forward, we used a lock box as we arrived after hours. The beds were all made up. They room was quiet. It was easy to get supplies the next morning as right near a lot of shops. I’d stay there again if needing to be in Gungahlin.

Lovely room (king Studio) clean, spacious, modern and with exception of sofa, comfortable. Free wifi and Chromecast is fantastic., much appreciated. Location is very good, next door to hotel, takeaways etc and close to main shops. Negatives would be that the bathroom fan was far too noisy and didn’t work and aircon was wrong type for the room, needed to have it on almost constantly. Our room was also very close to the adjoining bar and was very noisy. Overall good value and a nice motel.
