Room was clean. Location was convenient as we had to catch a very early flight the next morning at Avalon airport. The name says "Hotel". It is a more a motel than an hotel. It was fine for our short term needs.

I have stayed at this property a few times and always say great staff and the food is great and well priced. The only thing I would say is the bathrooms need another down light where the shower is as it’s very dark and as a result sometimes the cleaners miss spots like spider webs in the bathroom ect.

Very friendly staff,good food. The only negative comment was regarding the toilet seat in the bathroom being not installed correctly. The seat sat back from the toilet bowl, causing the guests to partially sit on the exposed bowl.
Verified review

4/10 Fair

Staff was lovely. We found the curtains didn’t shut out lights outside. Beds arent great and room was noisy in that we could hear conversations next door and outside. A great place to stay if youre drunk and need somewhere to pass out for the night.

The property was clean and tidy the only downfall and this is just a personal one for me was i needed a fan because it was soooo quiet lol at home we sleep with the fan noise. But other than that it was excellent
