Dated decor, uncomfortable bed, but clean and tidy
The check in was fine, the proprietor was friendly and attentive. The room smelled musty and damp and had very dated decor, but it was clean and tidy. The motel was right on the main road, but the traffic noise wasn't too bad.

It was good to arrive and walk into my room. Pissed off no normal channels on tv only a song channel. Watered down soap in bottle in bathroom. Took too long for the shower water to heat up.. Not even worth wot i paid for. Needs a good clean up around the place. motel. Its only a money motel.

The place is well located and the staff is very friendly. Unfortunately, the quality of the room wasn’t good. Not very clean and lots of things missing: kettle, soap, sponge, only 2 glasses/ 1 cup/ 2 plates for 4 people. We asked the friendly guy working there and we got a few more things. We had to wash again the cutlery and plates before using them. The windows were very dirty, etc. The place has a lot of potential but needs some improvement.

It was once a lovely place but is now everything is very dated and tired looking. Emergency housing on site as well which is very sad. Having said that, it was quiet and we slept well

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Upon arrival we walk into the room and the stench was unbearable, it smelt like the room hadn't been open for at least six months. Towels and pillows had green snot marks on them. We had decided at this point we couldn't stay in this place. We had tried the TV but it also didn't work. We have never had to stay in a place as bad as this. We approached the front reception and he offered a refund as he understood are concerns.

The rooms were really tired and old, didn't feel clean at all. The volume button on the TV remote didn't work, so TV was way too loud. Some light bulbs needed replacing. Definitely asking too much per room for what was offered. Waste of money.
