Disliked: Cleanliness
The room was quiet from stteet noise but quite tired in appearance. The gardens were well maintained. Inside the room was very tired. Sheets were clean, beds were comfortable. The ceilling in the bathroom has not been cleaned in some time, mould spots galore. The lock on the front door was difficult to operate, could do with a replacement. Rubbish from previous guests under the bed. Parking was plentiful, pool was clean. Good location for our needs.
One of the worst motels I've ever stayed in. The room is in dire need of renovation. The room is dark, the only light is a lamp on the bedside table by the wall, so I can't even tell if the room was cleaned - I just didn't see it. But I got a full trash can from the previous guests. Parking is right in front of the door, but it's not your parking - guests from the second floor took this space and then drove in and drove out all night, not letting me sleep.
If you are expecting prompt communication and helpful service, you will need to look elsewhere for accommodation. Milk stench in fridge. Wall partially repaired. Reception hours are not accurately displayed. Can not recommend.
An older property that needs a good refurb to remove mold.
Side tables and bathroom had water damage.
Beds were worn, room was tight for 4 people.
Kitchenette did not have a sink.
First room light was broken in bathroom moved rooms to have the main light broken and the tap firing in shower was falling off

It was noisy, the bed was very uncomfortable and felt like it had collapsed in the middle. There was only shampoo provided and no tissues. Wouldn’t stay there again

Did not have extra pillows not enough blankets for four beds we had four people only three cups
Needs to make sure there is enough items for the people in the room
Could not get a receipt as office was not opened
Cheap and nasty. Stay anywhere else but not this place. I only stayed there because it was cheap. Would not recommend it to anyone else at all. Maybe a caravan park would be a better choice.
Extremely pleasent stay. Stayed in February, checked in late with no issues. Room was clean and tidy. Shower temperature could become delightfully hot - if desired. Staff were contactable via text messaging. No review of reception area or pool - it looked clean though. The general area looked well maintained. Enjoyed the peace of low contact. Would stay again.
