A was staggered to find out the advertised restaurant had been closed for some time ! The bathroom, all the modern had a dispensing, toilet tissue module, the same, as you find in a council toilet sheet by sheet! And when you turn the shower on the entire floor, floods – I was not desperately impressed with this hotel at all

Check in started badly with reception unattended and a contact phone number posted on the door. Fortunately, we had a charged mobile phone – but it is inexcusable to not have the reception attended during normal business hours. A voice provided the lock box code, which contained 8-10 envelopes for incoming guests. The restaurant was closed, possibly due to a holiday absence – but would not open until several days after we departed. A hot cooked breakfast was available, cooked to order and well done. Wi-Fi was available but limited. Service staff were attentive and helpful, even when the reception was again unattended at checkout time and the cleaner processed the payment for breakfasts. A nice motel, reasonable pricing let down by the lack of presence!!

Receptionist was rude. Walls are paper thin. Had to listen to the people next door all night and doors slamming. Eventually we just got up at 4:30am and left.
