The rooms were clean with very comfortable beds. The fitness facilities are sufficient, although a bit old. The breakfast is terrible and doesn’t deserve to be called a breakfast. Sweet pastries, sweetened yoghurt, and ultra processed oatmeal. If you’re health conscious, you will be disappointed.

Great motel style accommodation, with kind staff. Breakfast is limited to grab-and-go items (not hot food, except oatmeal with hot water) but was a nice way to start the day. The pool is heated and well maintained, very clean. The property is quiet. The convenience store on the property with the deli was great- huge menu of sandwiches (including hot breakfast sandwiches) and other snacks. The room was spacious and clean, though a bit old so don’t expect a place that’s new. We enjoyed our stay and the price was right for the area!

The whole place was very neat and clean but our room was spotless - I loved the large bathtub that was ideal for soaking - The towels were exceptional and even bathrobes were provided - The king size bed was very comfortable and there was an extra blanket in the closet - We had a mini suite and I would recommend it for the slight prince increase
