4.0

Nice situation, close to town & reasonably quiet & reasonably cheap. The reception staff & cleaning staff were pleasant... I guess, at the end of the day, you get what you pay for, though...

− We had stayed once before, at this motel, 2 yrs ago...it was the main reason, we decided to stay again, this time, as it had been a lovely unit for a great price. Not our experience this time, unfortunately. A very disappointing stay....a dark, dismal & dated room, looking very neglected...there was no tv remote, & broken security locks on the window. The shower was disappointing, low pressure, & dated.....the list goes on. The gardens around our unit were full of long grass & weeds, although it had nice plants among them. We advised cleaning staff, on departure, re remote & broken locks, who said they would let the management know. We would not consider staying there, again, unfortunately.

A fairly basic and dated place but it is good value, clean, secure and had comfy beds. So totally happy with the sum of that. Would stay again.

− Nothing to note.
