Average

Table and chairs on balcony outside our room attracted very loud and swearing men which made us feel a little unsafe but says more about their behaviour than the motel. The bed was a very comfy king size. Good linen and towels. Modern bathroom would be even better if floor grout had a deep clean. TV volume was set too low and couldn't be adjusted. Tub chair was so filthy it should be replaced with an easily cleaned laminate & metal to match the other at the desk. Curtain also needs replacing. Other cabinets need moving together. If those changes were made then the room may live up to it's Executive King title. The back of reception door also needs a good scrub.

Two night stay

A two night stay. The reception staff were excellent and helful. The room was spacious and the bed comfortable. The bathroom a bit small and the corner shower tight. Flaky paint on the bathroom ceiling shows the age of the place. Some road noise at night did not help but tolerable.
