Accommadation was good but expensive. Breakfast was terrible and mean with no fruit, yoghurt, no coffee for the coffeè machine .. We received half a cup of cereal with two pieces of toast and not enough butter no effect was made, Best to go elsewhere if that's important to you.

Bathroom and shower floor was the most slippery floor we have ever experienced, we are in our 70's and showering was a scarry experience. Floors like this can be treated with anti slip treatments, you must do this before someone falls. We won't stay here again due to the floor.

Acceptable accommodation, unacceptable noise

The motel was as expected, comfortable but a bit tired in places. The biggest issue was that there was a fairly loud party outside our door until about 10:40, like related to the hosts/owners. While people were behaved, there were outside and there was very little sound proofing into the room, making for a not very pleasent stay. Only option would have been to get dressed and go confront the party, not something will to do late at night.

Great position, close to everything, parking next to room, beds were good, aircon worked well. The only downside is dangerous bathrooms. Extremely slippery with water (and especially with soap) on shower and bathroom floor. Not suitable for anyone with any sort of balance issues. There was a warning sign regarding slippery floors, but I was still surprised how slippery they were.
