The rooms were clean and adequate. For the money spent, I wouldn’t expect anything more. A little disappointed that the breakfast room was closed ( my guess covid related) , but the bed was comfortable and the shower hot, what more can you ask for

Very overrated

Reviewed By C8160RXadrianc

Thought this would b great accommodation given what we were being charged. Found room very dated and in need of complete overhaul. Threadbear carpet, only one bedside lamp,furniture in rundown state. Very musky smell when furst entering room. Should have read reviews first. Would not recommend for price charged. Only saving grace is the pub is on premises. Definitely would pay to check reviews before booking here

Clean motel room

Reviewed By Holzbiz

Stayed overnight as we had a wedding locally. This is a budget motel room so as expected the room was small and very basic however very clean and I was surprised by the comfortable bed. Although the room was so basic it met our needs as somewhere to crash the night. We attempted early check in without notice and the manager was very prompt to reallocate our room to assist with this so was happy with the customer service. Would stay here again as a ‘stop over’ type stay if needed.
