Shadzz Motel & Conference Centre

West End

10/10 Excellent

Absolutely fantastic motel - modern rooms,very clean and has everything you could possibly need. We were extremely impressed - had recycling bins and even listed the radio station freq for the alarm clock. Extremely friendly and helpful hosts - we could not find fault at all. Only disappointment will be once everyone else knows about this motel we won't be able to get a room again. Double glazed window also meant so quiet too...we travel often and you can clearly see why this facility has won...
