Clean, conveniently located and excellent value for money. The bed was comfortable and the unit was spotless. The swimming pool was a bonus and was also well maintained - only suggestion is to supply an extra towel for using at the pool.

There was a sewer odour in room. It was obvious but they were more interested in money than guest service as receptionist walked in with me and could not get out fast enough. The reason why receptionist walked in with me was room door was open which she could see, so she walked me to room to make sure it was clean. Room door and window at other end of room was open to air room out. Very poor service.

I would stay at this motel again. The staff went out of their way to make sure I was happy. The cleaning staff said hello every time they saw me. I was supposed to stay until the Sunday however with all the rain I ended up leaving on the Friday and the staff in the office were also fine with this.
