You get what you pay for with this one. Small room, mouldy shower curtain. Bathroom vanity needs replacing. Fly screen in bathroom was full of dust. Wifi wouldnt work. Tiny TV, bed was clean and comfortable enough. Curtains wouldnt close properly. I hope renovate the bathrooms and replace the widow furnishings as its in a good location.

Pool was filled in. No staff at reception, key was pulled out of key box by a young girl after calling motel next door. Floor not vacuumed, bathroom really old and floor / shower recess with a lot of dirt build up. Great ceilings - good make room look a lot more cheerful. All railings and outside furniture rusting so could not sit or dry towels.
