Expected something better

This motel is poorly renovated with a lot of recognisable old stuff undone. The website and its pictures give a different impression, which is disappointing. Then looking at what you get for what you pay, this is not in balance.

Good value, clean, very central, lovely staff.

Very clean. Not new but comfortable. Bed was very soft which I’m not used too so woke up with a bit of a sore back. Staff were lovely.

Shower head didn’t stay up so I had to hold it( 1st world problems!)

Suffice but wouldn’t return.

Handy location. Friendly staff member on desk.

Room stunk of chlorine. Tv was sluggish and didn’t appear to have sky as advertised. Outside appearance needs work. Peeling paint, weeds, broken equipment.

Bad

I only good thing about the room was that there was an oven as that is one thing we wanted

The cleanliness of the room, haif on the blankets, and shower. False advertising of having sky and there wasn't sky at all

Very good

Me my partner and my dad stayed there Tuesday 16th in room 13 and for the money we paid was definitely worth it. Beds are so comfortable had an awesome sleep had my favourite hot chocolate and tea warm heaters in all rooms. Definitely will recommend this motel and definitely will stay again thank you again

It was ok for one night but I would not go back.

Room had everything I needed but only just

Heating was just adequate in early May. Shower fitting was broken. Lighting was poor badly designed. Courtyard had a pile of dead vegetation. Rose gardens at front of unit badly in need of weeding.

Big room, comfortable bed. Quiet surroundings. Very accommodating for an early check-in

Was a bit tired and dated, but the price reflected this.

Happy staff, good location, value for money

Very friendly staff. Wendy accommodated me when I mucked up my booking. Whilst not 'flashy' the rooms are clean, spacious, are complimentary to the tariff, and had all I needed for work purposes (good WIFI, desk etc)

Wasted a lot of time trying to communicate with staff, the place was dirty.

A lot of customers was already arguing with the lady owner about wasting there time, we had to wait for a long check in and was asked if we wanted to check in and hour early we should rent another room, so we waited for check in and watch the cleaning staff just replace the used bedsheets and didn’t vacuum the floor.
