Lovely spacious 1 bedroom unit, with full kitchen and a bath was a bonus! Top marks for allowing a 12.00 midday checkout at no extra cost. Unfortunately the cleanliness was a let down as was the faulty body wash and empty conditioner dispensers in shower. Overall was a nice 2 day stay and would return.

Hot water use would result in a loud pump going definitely on its last leg, otherwise in a good area central to everything and the room layout is quite classic

Kathleen

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The impression I got was that the owners are not interested in either their motel or the comfort of their guests. It was freezing cold 1 celsius one morning but all they had on the beds was a thin bedspread type cover, not a duvet or blankets. The TV had only a few channels, no Netflix or youtube. There was no pressure in the bathroom hot water tap and the shower floor was dangerous and slippery, an accident waiting to happen. The unit could be made so much better and inviting, sadly a complete disappointment.

We stayed in a first-floor unit on the Bealey Avenue frontage. Traffic noise and street lighting were disturbing. Double glazing and adequate blinds and curtains would fix this problem.
