Was competitively priced compared to other hotels. Staff very welcoming and friendly, evening meals at bar were very good as was cooked breakfast. Sadly the two rooms booked were not to standard. One room tv did not have signal and shower did not get warm on both days. Other room had a strange smell, possibly drainage or septic tank? Had so much potential but will have to look elsewhere next visit."

Only fault i have, nothing the motel can do though, is it was a little noisy with the road traffic and the train line so bear in mind if your used to a little more rural settings. Place was immaculately clean, plenty parking and room was a great size. Had a fantastic few days and would recommend using the motel as a base for exploring the area.

The rooms are seriously dated and in need of a major update ! When I got to my room I found confetti around the floor which leads me to think it hadn’t been cleaned very well.
