This is an older motel that shows it's age. However, the room was clean and the king size bed was comfortable. The staff were very friendly and the inclusions of free Wi-Fi and a large free on-site car park were wonderful bonuses so close to the city centre. We enjoyed our stay and very much appreciated staff contacting us and arranging pickup of clothing we accidentally left behind in the room.

Internet is good.Room was serviced but no fresh hand towel supplied and bed not made up.Also no shampoo only body wash and conditioner.The room has no toaster or bowls and spoons so breakfast is a challenge.The room was spacious and comfortable and the bathroom clean , the room was on the road side of the building and the road noise was constant.Overall it was a good stay despite the shortfalls.
