"The only thing I didn't check was if the unit was on the ground floor as I have trouble with stairs (it was on the ground floor, so I was very happy). Highlighting this on the room descriptions would help people with access problems"

10/10 Excellent
"I booked the apartment room for my builders to stay in for 2 nights. They said the rooms were clean and comfortable, having a kitchen was important because I had set the builders up with their breakfast foods and they were sent back each night with their evening meal to heat up. Eion and Bev had the room warm for them on arrival on their first night and gave quality banter throughout their stay. Greatly appreciated their time in getting them settled in, happily book with them again in the future as well as recommending their motel as a great place to day."
