Our room (14) had a torn curtain, no blockout blinds. Power points on the bed side were so far out of reach as to be useless. Huge sink in the bathroom but no bench space. Advertised as 'Steak House' but no such facility was in operation. Only catering was a simple self-serve breakfast. The receptionist was friendly and helpful.

Prior to stayinf, we notified the motel we would be bringing dogs. We were placed in a room on the second floor. No/limited grassy areas around for my dogs to releave themselves. Permanent tenants were occasionally rowdy, especially at night. Felt a bit sketchy. The steakhouse was never opened during my stay, and hasn't been for years according to other reviews. "Breakfast included" consisted of tea, coffe, toast or cereal. No hot options. The room was alright. The only negative was it didn't have plates, bowls or any cutlery
