The purpose of making a reservation is to ensure you have a place to stay after traveling. When we arrived there was a sign no vacancy. Rang the bell as I thought I was surely part of the place being full. Nope they gave someone my room. I arrived around 6pm. A phone call would have been nice.

We are local, my husband goes offshore for his birthday every year. We needed a clean bed and pool. So we didn’t have to drive so far, to take him to the dock, or after 12 hours on the water. This is everything we needed. The quietest place we have stayed in years. Only noise was traffic. So if you just lookin for a clean bed and a place to sleep over. I would definitely recommend.

Towels for bathing were dirty. Pillow cases looked like they had been used to clean things up. Room smelled like stale cigarettes. There were a bunch of people outside my room blasting foreign music all hours of the night. And I came out to a heavyset guy asleep, drunk leaning on my door with his shoes kicked off and I had to use Google translate to tell him to leave. He waddled about 30 meters away from my room, leaned on a car, fell, and proceeded to fall asleep again. The staff was nice though, and I got to park right outside my room.

DO NOT STAY HERE!! The room was dirty (beds were dirty and used facecloth in the bathroom). The room smelt so strong of air freshner we could taste it! My family is sensitive to smells and we could not stay in the room because of the overall condtion/smell. When we went to discuss with owner she acted inconvienced by servicing us because she was sleeping and we woke her up. We were told no other rooms were available so i asked if we could have a partial refund because we couldnt stay in the room becauee of its state, she refused. We left and stayed at the motel across the road which was actually clean and has amazing customer service. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE. Also, the pool is not clean.
