The room was very smelly, old, tatty, damaged worktops, damaged shower, no Jug/kettle, no hairdryer. Amenities were very basic. Curtains were tatty. The staff were unhelpful. The lady who gave us the keys insisted on taking my credit card details to cover "incidentals" The photos in their brochure is of a new block.

The location is excellent however the rooms have a lot of issues. We had broken drawers, no tea towels, no facecloths, no toilet roll holder, broken towel rail, expired milk sachets, no storage in one room, no sky but sign says has 60 sky channels, broken light switches and power outlets were disfigured, dirty cups, dishwashing liquid in Pepsi and Powerade bottles, 1 pillow each on bed per person. If you want a cheap motel to just sleep overnight and spend little time in then that’s fine but really needs some TLC and updating. ![Damaged power outlet ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/666cee66-66e2-4082-8ed2-f470684a3833-1759029840007.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Tania Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Justine Feb 26, 2025 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Lovely staff and very helpful. The property isn’t very clean and it smells funny.
