Thank you Mondello for an excellent stay! We only stayed one night but would have happily stayed more. Spotlessly clean, lovely touches like cafetière coffee provided and great location. Really setting the standard for motels! Thank you!

Liked: Cleanliness
The pros: cool looking rooms, good breakfast. Excellent parking underneath The cons: The foyer smells foul when you enter from outside or come down the lift not sure if this is the toilet right by reception/lifts but this was apparent both days we stayed. Rooms look cool but bathroom is badly designed with tap in wrong position by sink, lights at mirror that have no apparent lightswitch to turn them on. Shower door that needs adjustment so it will close. One switch for lights on entry that does everything so it’s all or nothing in the room which would be cool if it wasn’t so over lit. Soulless corridors leading to rooms This hotel could be really great but lacks in the detail to make it so.

Nice quiet spot!
Quiet comfortable room with a kitchenette. The room was a little small but we had space for everything we neeeded. The view from the back patio was gorgeous. The room was spotless and relatively quiet. We appreciated having side tables on both sides of the bed and easy access to outlets for chargers and my husband’s cpap machine.

Great location and supportive staff.
Great location. We arrived a little early but this was not a problem for them. When we went to use the service washing machine, it was out of order. Without hesitation they offered to do the washing in the hotels machine which they did with a cost. Very helpful.
