This is not a nice place to stay. The room was quite dirty, fridge smelt horrid even though nothing was in it, cutlery/mugs were dirty and nothing provided to wash it, very loud slamming doors that shake the whole room when you're trying to sleep. I would not recommend it.

Clare

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The staff are extremely nice and helpful, no complaints there. The room was very neglected and absolutely stank of smoke and it got much worse when I turned the heater on. It was a very cold weekend so I had to use the heater but it was a choice I made reluctantly. I asked immediately if I could be moved but the motel was full and I wasn't offered a refund. There is a hotel directly opposite that I could perhaps have gone to.. My other issue is with the building I was in which is not the main building. It too is neglected but it also feels less safe than the main building. As a female staying alone I would have felt much safer in the main building. This is the second time I've stayed at the Bell Motel and my experiences have been totally different. It boils down to main building versus second neglected building .
