Good Location, but motel interior and exterior conditions are almost rundown and don’t match with the online booking images, a full professional renovation is required.

I could tolerate the small room and poor cleanliness, but the fact that there wasn’t even a hair dryer was unbelievable. Being unable to dry my hair after a shower was truly frustrating and made me feel helpless.

My check in was smooth, staff friendly. I eventually managed to park in thier car park, very limited with spaces, other guests crossing into 2 spaces didnt help. Connecting to the wifi was easy once you choose the right hub, this could have been better explained. The room had everything i needed but was shabby, everything in the room needed updating. The taps and shower were both rusty, the entire floor area wasnt in the best condition along with the tiles on the bathroom floor. I stayed comfortably for 2 nights and managed to do all that I needed. A bedside lamp or small wall light would help make the room less bright for if you don't want the full ceiling lights on

Although the motel has aged, the room was very clean and tidy. The manager was very helpful and courteous. This accommodation would suit someone on a short stay and a budget.
