The room looked like it wasn’t even cleaned before we stayed. Dust everywhere in the bathroom. The bath was broken and the water was shut off on the second night of our stay which meant we couldn’t shower or brush our teeth before checking out. The staff was friendly though

Disliked: Amenities
Inadequate signage. Reception is not obvious, had to ask another guest where it was. Reception area is dusty & unkept. Paying $15 per day to park on the property is costly. Directions to some rooms not present. Had to call manager several times to get exact location of my room (19) no signage.

“The property was very sticky on the kitchen floor. The bathroom water was not flushing properly. The beds were very uncomfortable—we could feel the springs in the mattresses. The TV was not working, but after we informed them, it was fixed on the second day. All the cupboards were very dirty.”

Broken glass on pavement outside there premises which apparently had been there for ages and they didn't want to give me a broom and shovel to clean it up. I cleaned it up before someone cut themselves.

Staff member was friendly. Facilities were tidy but not clean, also in need of some serious maintenance. Motel did come up when I searched for free parking but was actually $15 per night. It was okay but we won't be back.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The bed was past its best, no bedside lights. Had to ask for a fan since the windows were locked shut. While using the spa bath, a brown scum residue was present after use (suggests fresh water hasn't been flushed thru the system for a while). No phone in bedroom so had to use my own cellphone to contact reception to request both the fan and a TV remote but had to ring again, 1/2 an hr later due to no response. Receptionist wasn't exactly enthusiastic on at least 3 occasions I went to the front office...general feeling of not really caring about the image of the service they were offering. On a positive note, great location and the room service staff were very friendly. Pity the other aspects of the business let them down. Am unlikely to use it again, sadly.
