2/10 Poor

Rude, lecturing, yelling and made us wait 30 minutes for check in as she wasn’t on site. Front office area filthy, just like the mouth of the female attendant who was meant to be an onsite manager (I really hope not). No greeting or even attempted apology for the wait, told us it’s not her job to chase us if we don’t check in in time 😂 Room had to be pre paid so I can check in at my pleasure at a civilized time (just before 8pm)… The Motel looks like a jail and is an absolute disaster. Only positive was a hot shower and clean bed sheets and reasonable clean jail cell. Highly NOT RECOMMENDED, rather you sleep in your car or under a bridge. Honestly do not know how they’re still in business…

Parking was easy, the room needed a good clean, the stove was disgusting my husband gave it a quick clean to hard boil some eggs. Rooms are spacious, shower leaked, the location was great. With some work this place could be wonderful.

10/10 Exceptional

Convenient location with excellent garden surroundings. Spacious room with comfortable bed and nice pillows. Large, well equipped bathroom. The room had an aircon that looked brand new but when running it made a growling noise in the pipework every 30 seconds or so - fortunately the weather was such that it was not required on during the night. Planned to have a quick dinner on site only to find the kitchen was operating that evening. Turned out to be blessing in disguise as we instead drove to a Thai restaurant about 5 minutes away and had a fantastic meal there.

Check in was great, very friendly. The room was spotlessly clean and looked great, good amenities too. Only downside is air con only just managed to take the heat out of the room,certainly not cool and mattress could do with replacing- not comfortable
