Room was fine for the price. A bit more effort around the building to clean up would make it a lot better. Not sure what goes on there during the night with some ladies but there was a lot of visits occurring. Overall the motel gets a pass

The food in the bistro was very poor. We dined there twice and were bitterly disappointed both times. Staff were great-very friendly and helpful. Exterior was pretty average, all bricks and concrete.

Hi there. I got the keys to check in and the room was not up to standard at all. It smelt really bad, the curtains felt greasy and the sheets were stained yellow. My wife has allergies so I went to reception and asked fur a refund. They told me to respond to you. This is unacceptable and we left and checked in somewhere else. Also the photos online are nothing like the real thing. I am requesting a full refund obviously as I did not stay in that room for more than 2 minutes.
