Service was friendly. Price was good. Outside of motel needed a real clean up. Our upstairs room was quiet. Room needed a real tidy up and was not particularly clean.

Adequate at best.

Room is just adequate. Good shower height and pressure. No room on sink vanity for your kit. Bed is very spongy but I was very tired and slept fine. Blanket on bed was filthy with actual crumbs on it so it hadn’t even been aired or shaken out.

Booked for 5 adults, only two double beds provided, manager suddenly decided he didnt understand english. The room was absolutely filthy, tacky, smelling of fungal feet and bad bad perspiration all thrown in with rank cooking smells. The lounge was broken and filthy. Asked for refund becuse it was too un hygienic for inhabitants, again he told me to see expedia and disappeared. Travellers beware, this is not what you see in the booking photos . We left and were lucky to get another lovely place to stay at such short notice. 0/10. Dont waste your money and health.
