Room really didn't reflect the images shown. Much smaller and extremely run down. Bathroom was pretty terrible to be honest. Mouldy, filthy dirty, paint peeling, shower had curtain only and base had no edge so it flooded room. Literally half repaired concrete with missing/broken tiling. Really unpleasant.

Reception staff (Owner) friendly and helpful. website says breakfast available, it was not. No in-house dining at all. Beds weren't made although requested just towels changed. A little too pricey for what was on offer - noisy mini friedge which woke us up very early. Bathroom extractor extremely noisy. Place looks dated and in need of an overall upgrade.

Because the operation at the hospital was cancelled and we were unable to complete our stay. Because we had prepaid our stay the Manager was extremely helpful by having our unused credit held over until the next hospital stay very happy with his attitude and advice.look forward to our next visit.

This is a fairly old motel that offers a basic, cheap, clean option for short stays. Check in is easy and the staff are friendly. The towels are clean and the water is good pressure and temperature. Tea and coffee provided, along with the complimentary biscuits.
