There is a strong mouldy smell in the hotel room. The hair dryer is broken, and the shower room heater is not working either.

Great location. Great staff- Amit was the best. Good value, clean rooms. Pick up and drop off to airport easy.
Would definitely stay again.

Unhealthy room (mould), poorly maintained (broken tap, heater blocked drain), overpriced and small. This motel is in serious need of cleaning, drying out and basic maintenance.
The manager/owner was very nice but this motel is not up to scratch.

Highly recommend stayed 2 nights. The owner agreed to a very late check in with no problem at all. Unit was very clean, beds were comfortable. Great location across from the mall. Had no trouble parking on site. Owner was very approachable. Will definitely be staying there again

Okay, so I have reviewed this place already. But I feel it worth it to add another positive review after my last few stays.
Have stayed at 162 many times now. It's fairly short drive from the airport makes it a convenient overnight halt for me.
The rooms are well appointed and clean. The owner is a absolute delight to deal with, his customer service is above and beyond. Showers have great pressure, rooms are toasty and warm, and beds comfortable with quality linen. Full Sky TV offered, and the motel is across the road from the Westfield mall.
Waking up in a motel on Christmas morning is never fun, but I was glad I was staying at 162!
Thanks team, keep up the great work!!!
