Room was spotless, staff was amazing. Air conditioner needs to be fixed because, we couldn’t regulate the air, it was the only negative that can be easily fixed. I would love to have microwave oven in the motel just incase I need to make my food warm.

Smokig should be not permitted near accommodation.

Excellent check in. Friendly staff. Close to shopping and other businesses. Room was clean. However there was a guest in the room next to us (Room 9) who constantly smoked. The second hand smoke came directly into our room via the batroom vented window. Patrons should NOT be allowed to smoke so close to others and a designated smoking area should be allocated with signage near every room.

Bed comfy, good sized room. Carpet was sticky underfoot, room had a strong chemical smell. Obviously cleaned, perhaps not 'rinsed'. Couldn't turn hand basin taps off properly. Towels and linens clean.

Cheap & Comfy

An overnight stay to attend medical appointments The room was clean & comfortable albeit a bit our dated & in need of an upgrade. However the price was very good & we were happy with the value for money. Staff were very freindly.
