Staff were friendly and fresh towels and room serviced daily. Small room without natural lighting, badly in need of renovation. Dissapointed with poor facilities especially compared to booking, different room we had, when we stayed last year. Mould in shower, badly leaking spraying shower and hand basin taps, no lighting other than a switch near bathroom door across room from bed ... not even a bedside light; and ancient noisy aircon with no remote. Room certainly was not worth price we paid.

dangerous shower
The shower was extremely dangerous. The bath under the shower was slopped and there was a dip in the bath directly under the shower not large enough for your feet to fit.

The room was a little dated but suitable for our stay. Clean and a comfortable bed. Air-Con noisy so couldn't have it on and sleep. A few negatives but for the price I would stay again when in the area.

Apart from the age of the premises there appears to be none or very little upkeep of the rooms and property in general. The website advertises a Dining Room. Whe I asked for directions I was advised that they had Not re opened the Dining Room since COVID. After driving all day the last thing I wanted to do was drive to the “cheap pub dow the road” which I was advised to try. Will not return to this place. They really need to change the website as they are falsely advertising.

Clean & tidy. Good value. Excellent base for a short stay over. Our room was the spa option even had a kitchen with oven etc. room 25. Bed was comfy. If you want views, onsite 5-star dining & room service This place isn't for you. Pretty quiet we had the a/c running which was a little noisy but it's that square box style, so they are what they are. Overall, it's a no-frills motel to put your head down at night whilst checking out the area I would go back again. Office staff were great.
