Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Very happy with our accomodation. When we arrived, the staff upgraded us from a family room to a 2 bedroom motel room which was fantastic. The decor is dated but it was clean, comfortable, quiet and had everything we needed for a 1 night stay. I would recommend this motel for a short stay away and it is central to everything.

After a long drive I was really able to relax in the comfy lounge. Everything functioned very well. The bed was very comfortable and I slept well. For an older chap, it would be good to have a rail or handle near the toilet.

I'll start with the good. Staff very friendly. Check in very easy. Got upgraded to a 2bdr room at check in. Bed is comfortable. Fresh milk provided and room serviced each day. The cons. Noise from road traffic. Lights outside window don't turn off until after 10pm. Room very old and dated. Bathroom walls/tiling very unclean. There was mould in grout and boogers/grot/etc on the tiles in the shower and around the bathroom sink. And finally, I booked through Trivago and used 'pool' as a filter. Images on the site showed a pool. When we arrived there was a dirt patch where a pool used to be. Kids were devestated! If we had known, we would have gone elsewhere. Overall, it's ok for a quick overnight stay if travelling through.
