Stop over
We arrived earlier than the 14.00 hours booking in time. I politely asked if it was possible to take the room earlier. If it had not been possible I would have accepted the decision. The key was handed over and I paid. The lady in question did not present a welcoming demeanour that I have seen in the other properties I have stayed in. Points of issue with Room 18: 1. Heater in bathroom does not work 2. Shower head leaks 3. Sink needs attention due to not emptying quick enough

Spiders inside and no table and one chair. Only a desk with TV on it. My wife had to sit on the bed to eat her meals . It needs a bit of maintenance and outside our door was a little tunnel. Spiders everywhere in it.

A basic motel. It served the purpose for a 1 night stay. Could do with some updates. It was noisy.

Short walk to sea front
Motel was clean and tidy, it is by the side of the main road but was not affected by road noise. Short but (depending of which way you go) steep route down to sea front. The room was affected by a group of motorcyclists who were somewhat noisy.

Comfortable but basic with no frills. Everything we needed for an overnight stay. On the main road but noise not an issue for us. Need to walk or drive to shops and eating places.

This place was nice except for the staff. We never felt very welcome. We asked for milk once and were questioned about possibly drinking it. We stayed for 3 nights and never asked for anything else. We very rarely ever saw anyone in the office and the man that we spoke with was very brusque and unsmiling.
