We didn't like the bed that folded us like bananas. We didn't like the shower door handle that had a three inch screw coming out the back. This threatened to disembowel us. We didn't like the paper thin towels. The propert has good potential that is being ruined by sloppy workmanship. Forget putting in a pool and pay attention to detail.

Please improve your cleaning!

The location is convenient but the room was not cleaned properly such carpet, fridge, bed, bathroom, table and chairs even the toilet wasn’t flushed properly when I received the room. I hope they can do deep clean once and keep it in good condition from there . If they can improve their cleanliness, they will have more clients. I won’t be back with this cleaning. I don’t mind old furnitures but at least they are clean properly. So disappointed!

Uncomfortable stay.

The cleanliness of this motel was appalling. The dining chairs were disgustingly filthy. A pillow case was stained. The bed sheets were not flattened out or neat and tidy. The beds were so soft, they are ready for replacement. The shower alcove had a missing door handle. The manager did do his best to amend, however, i wouldn't be recommending.

Was dubious after reading other reviews. For the price of the room we were pleasantly surprised and would stay there again. I would give it a three star rating out of five. Obviously the rooms could be improved but we were quite comfortable.

I didn't rate it a 1 for cleanliness as the room had been cleaned, however the carpet is stained the couch grubby & everything is just years old & worn out. I couldn't turn the cold water tap on at all in the shower. The toilet kept filling after each flush if you didn’t repeatedly push the button. I couldn't stop sneezing from dust, probably in the curtains. It hasn't been refurbished since it was built decades ago. The couch is completely worn out & grubby from years of use. I dreaded going to bed as I thought it's going to be like the other furniture, I was surprised that the bed at least was fine. The kitchen supplies ie bar fridge microwave were all fine.The main light in the room was so dim I had to use my phone's torch to see inside my suitcase properly. If I had to rate it overall I would give it a 1.5 & that's for the bed & that it had been cleaned. It's just completely worn out & outdated & apart from the bed needs new furnishings, it all felt grubby.
