A good, simple stay at Pampas motel. Furniture in room was very nice and shared bathrooms were very clean. Kitchen lacked a fridge and stove (although reception told us that most rooms have fridges). There was a cracked window pane in the room which let a bit of a draught in but it wasn’t too cold at night. Overall a good spot for a short stay.

The bed was comfy, however we did not have a microwave in our room. The rooms are not very soundproof either, I expected the train noise, but the noisy people in the room next door were awful.

The room was large and clean. No other amenities. Not very close to many things. Train runs behind the property until 10pm and blows its horn for a level crossing. If you're just looking for a place to sleep, the motel was good.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Positives: Good wifi, large room, price. Slept well in the bed. Negatives: The "kitchen" lacked a fridge (freezer only for some reason), no cutlery (bring your own). Does have a microwave and toaster though. Unstaffed at published check-in time, so had to phone and wait ten minutes, apparently 2pm is no longer correct. Bathrooms are huge rooms but then have about the smallest actual shower cubicle I've encountered. With a strange lump under a rug, I finally got curious enough to lift it up to find a bit of rubbish was literally "swept under the rug" at some point. Interesting: It was a lovely old pub, I'd once considered buying something similar to turn into accommodation so was keen to check it out. Strangely, it felt half renovated, with classy furniture in places but then like they'd run out of funds and have things like bedside lamps on a nice table but without any power to actually enable them to work. I'd imagine that the more standard motel rooms downstairs are what earn the more positive reviews as the upstairs guest rooms have so much potential. I wanted to like it, but should have just paid a bit more to stay somewhere far better.
