I liked that it was clean and tidy. Nice for a relaxing weekend. And the staff member we dealt with was amazing. Although the car parking was not ideal as everytime others came in we had to move our car a number of times then other cars would take our car park. Also another complaint we had was that the wifi turned off around 6pm each night. We're were not happy having to hot spot the children on their phones. Then it would come back on in the morning but always off at 6pm.

Room was filthy have taken photos if needed. Stains on carpet, dirty walls, holes in wall in toilet, picture in toilet fell off the wall nearly hitting one of my children. Electrical plugs in kitchen sticky and dirty. Coffee cups dirty in the cupboard. Blinds dirty in bathroom. People staying in room above us partied until 2am very loud. Not a great stay away from home unfortunately. Wouldn’t recommend.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
A bit run down and in need of some updating. The beds are really hard, the parking is difficult with very little space, wardrobe doors that don't stay closed, and there is no soap dish in the shower! Lots of paint scrapes on the walls & milk wasn't replenished all weekend. The place just needs a bit of money put towards better presentation, especially given the area it's in.

Cheap price but cleanliness wasn’t really up to standard, black mould in bathroom, extractor fan didn’t work, I guess I’m just picky after being in the business for most of my life. Will stay again, tho

Good location let down by lack of maintenance

Pros: good location, traffic noise not too loud, beds reasonably comfortable. Cons: Very much not cleaned regularly or properly, ants in kitchen, toilet not cleaned. Nowhere near enough power points, staff difficult to find even during opening hours. It seems like this place has been gradually falling into disrepair and the kitchen was well overdue a remodel with broken cupboards and lots of grime everywhere. I would probably have been a lot more happy with this place if it was a ‘you get what you pay for’ deal but it was substantially more expensive than a much cleaner and more spacious motel just down the road which we also stayed at. Would not recommend unfortunately.
