Lovely helpful staff. Rooms are a little outdated but good for the price you pay.

We stayed 1 night with 3 children, and our bed setting was awesome. We had reasonable sized beds, with a comfort sized room.

Room was clean but small, dated and worn. Tv did not work and when we realised, office was closed so could not be fixed. Outside lights were turned off so pitch black when we walked back to the unit at night.

For an older style motel, this was a great last minute find. Excellent value for money, pleasant large room and comfy bed.
Thanks
