This is a strip of motel rooms behind the pub. Room was reasonably clean; microwave and fridge worked. Bathroom facilities functional. Only one pump bottle of hand soap was provided for hands, shower and dishes. The common kitchen was barely useable - dishes and pots needed to be washed, microwave didn’t work,

Very hard bed, one pillow & thin. You really do have to run the water for at least 5 mins... realistically more. Shower needs replacing, light bulbs not in lights... extremely over priced for what u get. 2 stars is generous
