Just stayed for an overnight whilst travelling through. Beds and bedding were amazing! Good location near restaurants. Microwave in the room didn’t work, bath/shower was dirty and paint peeling off whilst the water waa hitting it. Hand soap dispenser was in the shower and body wash was in the hand basin and you couldn’t swap it over. Body lotion pump didn’t work. Room was a little dirty and dusty. Toilet seat was broken and toilet lid wouldn’t stay up. Motel is a little dated and run down.

The bed was very, very comfortable. There were ants about. The bins were so small that it was difficult to dispose of rubbish. No tea towels were provided, though crockery, cutlery and a microwave were. An oversight?
