I felt the shower was a bit dangerous as it was a high step up / down. The water was very hot but I had a near burn because the mixer on the shower was hard to know which way was hot or cold. A vacuum under the bed was needed. Very clean and comfortable beds .

Disliked: Amenities
Room very dated and in need modern update. Paint was peeling off the walls. Shower was very dated and uninviting that we didn’t use it. Old fashioned rose head in the shower. We paid twice as much for this motel as others were fully booked but do not expect to be staying in a very basic motel unit. Tea and coffee supplies were at best minimal and not appetising. Could get TV to work. Only good thing was the bed was really good with good linen. Cleanliness was really good

The staff were extremely helpful as we locked out keys in our car, so allowed us to use a downstairs unit while waiting for a locksmith to come this made our departure less stressful as it was pouring down with rain as well Thank you Twin Peaks hope to visit again Cheers Dot & Mike
