Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was dirty, mold in bathroom, blood on the wall, bugs found in the unit, the carpet was dirty behind the mini fridge (which was in bad shape) and behind the beds were also very dusty. The bed and sheets were the only rhing clean and tidy in there. The walls were paper thin, we could hear most conversations happening in the parking lot and as we were located on the ground floor, we could hear every step up the stairs which sounded like stomping. There was construction going on right outside the building, which is out of their control but something to keep in mind, they did give out ear plugs so it is obviously well noticed by the motel but not mentioned until the day we were set to check in, nor did the mention that there was two construction sites operating. Reception only open from 9am till 7pm. We were supposed to stay for two nights but left after the first due to the construction being too disrutbive for our 3 year old. They would not reimburse us.

Staff were lovely, its an old place but been renovated and is nice and clean. In a good spot for access to pacific fair and half hour drive to the theme parks. Carpark is small and can fill up, but you can park on the grass at the property next door. If i had one negative, the shower pressure wasnt the best 😁 Thank you for having us.
