Only saw the staff when I arrived and when I couldn't lock the door he said I hadto slam it to lo k, he was right. The curtain above the main bed wasn't on the tracks properly which let in alot of light early morning and after speaking to some locals they said that motel was known for prostitues, homeless and drug dealers but thats only hearsay I didn'tsee any goings on, the furniture was awful, but I'm home now never to go back there again Cheers

The amenities and spacious rooms for a budget motel were great. Beds were comfortable, kitchen (with microwave) was roomy, 2 TVs included in our 2 room apartment, with guest laundry facilities and ample bench space for luggage, carry bags etc. Traffic noise was not not intrusive and dissipated at night. For a basic, clean accommodation I would be happy to stay again.
