My small 'single' room with a double bed was tucked in beside the office, and seemed to me to be a rcent addition in a spare space in the administrative block. Lots of road noise with carpark outside the one small window for the room. It was very hot throughout the day untill early hours of morning. Also hearing a fan motor continuously running during the nights. Room was spotless.

The hotel is undergoing construction and they started at 8am finishing at 8pm. This meant if you wanted a restful stay you didn’t get one. The price didn’t reflect the disruption.

This motel looks quite scruffy from the outside but the unit itself had been refurbished and was quite spacious. Excellent beds and linen, but threadbare towels and no salt and pepper. A mirror by a powerpoint is needed for drying hair as the hairdryer can't be plugged in the bathroom. A handy location close to the beach and shops and surprisingly quiet at night.
