The room was very spacious it had a small balcony, a kitchenette which was a bit small but manageable and a hot tub which was round and accommodated more than 1 person, it was luxurious to use. Walkable to town, a bit noisy on the main road and we only saw 1 staff member who was pleasant but we did have to go away for an hour till the room was ready, which was already past the 2pm arrival time, but it was worth the wait.

The unit was great, but be prepared to be lulled to sleep by boy (or girl) racers up and down Fitzherbert Ave. The motel is near to lights so lots of revving and screaming of brakes. I’d consider staying again as the facilities were so good, but would ask for a unit downstairs and away from the main road.
