Check in process took a while. Room was very smelly, probably because of the carpet. AC was locked, so room was hot. The adjacent unit had what it seems like longterm tenant who were very loud and disrespectful, always screaming and arguing

Reception un manned, had to call a number for someone to arrive by car for check in (about 5 mins) there were dirty socks in the cupboard, empty wine bottle under sink, had to call again to get a tray for the oven to cook dinner (that took 40mins to arrive), pretty much empty dish washing liquid, shower water pressure is non existent, no daily house keeping as advertised. Came to give new towels 3 nights into my 4 night stay. No staff onsight at all, must call a cell number for them to arrive if anything needed

The room was clean and tidy. Went to cook a meal found there were inadequacies in enabling this. No cutting board, no cutting knife, no frypan, only 1 pot. No free to air TV luckily I can work the the systems and we were able to watch a documentary. No hairdryer. Mandatory in most reasonable motelsAn ashtray outside our unit was full of Cigarette butts. As this was a non smoking unit and the only place outside our unit to sit. Not acceptable.Felt short sheeted when the top sheet didn't fit across the bed. Had to get up in the middle of the night to remake the bed.

Unfortunately the wifi and tv wouldn’t work! When i informed the property manager that I was at a dart tournament and wouldn’t be back till late they told me they are not 24/7 and wouldn’t help with sorting it all out! I got told no one else has complained about it, like it was my problem! It was cosy and clean, bathroom was nice, and the bed was good. Kitchen was also good! Very spacious motel. Unfortunately because of the lack of help I would not stay there again! I never got offered any money back for them not supplying all facilities that was promoted! For me a tv and wifi is a must!

The place had unkept gardens, lawns were long, reception was dirty, in the unit the air conditioning was held together with cellotape and so was the tv, the door didnt shut properly so we couldnt lock it! There wasnt enough blankets on the bed so we had yo sleep with the air con on heat which was right over our bed. Good note: the receptionist let us check in early with no charge

No cutlery provided for eating or cooking yet had a full stove for cooking. No milk provided for a cup of tea and no teaspoons to be able to make a cup of tea. Instructions on how to operate tv would have been helpful. Bed was hard but ok. Parking was tight and grounds unkept. However it was cheap so we got we paid for.

Nothing to like. It was very run down and dirty. We booked for two people and there was only one cup and one breakfast bowl. No coat hangers and no bedside lamps. One draw was broken on the bedside cabinet. The shower was just about non existent…saving water? Overall needs a good clean and spruce up. Would not recommend.
