My room was clean and well outfitted, and they were able to accommodate my request for a ground level room. Check in and out was easy. Only downside was some unavoidable building noise while I was there.

The room had a toaster and microwave though there was no crockery or cutlery provided and only 1 teaspoon. The television reception was poor. It rained the first day we were there and all night there were loud dropping noises on the roof which kept my husband and I awake.

I didn’t want to leave. The room is so welcoming and comforting. I think it’s the crisp white sheets, pillow cases and the warmest Doona I’ve ever slept under. Soft white towels. It’s the most pristine and clean motel room that I’ve ever seen. I’ll be back.
