Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
This motel has seen better days and is sorely in need of maintenance. Many fittings are worn and the property generally looks tired. There is black mould in the bathroom. I was told had scored an upgrade but it just meant I had 2 flights of stairs to get to room and another to get to the bedroom.
