Verified traveller

Travelled with family and small children
Disliked: Cleanliness
The whole experience was terrible. The room was tiny, outdated, with leaking taps and beds from the 70’s. Paint peeling off the shower floor, which was in desperate need of repair. The railing on the smokers deck is wobbly and unsafe. The manager kept trying to come into the room with tradesmen, while the baby was sleeping, and my daughter getting dressed. His dog roamed freely in and out of the room. A totally unpleasant experience over all. We couldn’t wait to get out of there.

Great for a stopover
We only had a stop over at this place so it was all we needed. Large room, seperate shower and toilet which was good. The beds were fine, typical motel style beds. Room was clean and we had a room at the back of the motel so there was no roadside noise. I would stay here again if I was passing through.
