Super basic place if you need a place to crash. Unfortunately the spa bath didn’t work for our visit. It is close to the train line and highway so there is a bit of noise. Lovely people and clean place.

Great stay, the room was perfect. We walked to our restaurant for tea which I probably should have done more research it was a little rough but certainly not the motels fault.

Nice motel just situated off the busy road but no biggie. Also close to Bayfair Mall and other surrounding shops. Staff very friendly and accommodating and the room also spacious and having the luxury of a smart TV was a bonus as you can use your own device to stream your programs. Highly recommended and would stay again

Lady at check in was really nice and friendly. Room seemed quite clean, shower was good. We did not like the rodents running around in the ceiling which kept us up all night. If we didn’t have to be somewhere in the morning we would have packed up at 3am and left. We didn’t get any sleep. Reported it to the office and lady said she would let the owners know, I hope they sort it.
