Clean and spacious

Spacious room. Much more noisy than I realized- some traffic noise but the trains roar by every 2-3 hours ( or feels like it as it was difficult to keep a track of the regularity through the night) so very disrupted sleep!

The pillows were very uncomfortable, and only 2 thick pillows. It would be good to have a thick and thin pillow on a bed to accommodate various peoples likes. The bed was comfortable, and room nice and clean. The little milk seches area inadequate when paying good money to stay somewhere. No shower mat provided. Very noisy with the train at room level 3 times during the night.

Was that Thomas the Tank engine?

Great friendly staff. Room was excellent but the railway tracks were just outside our bedroom window. Approx 5 x freight trains during the night felt like they were in the room with me. We stayed 2 x nights and the trains did not seem too bad on the second night. Other than that, the rest of the motel is excellent! I would still stay here again.
