Global IT outage meant no services available. Staff did what they could to help us overnight. Shortage of crockery in room and no hair-dryer. Otherwise comfortable.

We stayed foe a two week period. The room was comfy if not spacious and clean. Access to the Hotel and the very helpful staff was fine. Improvements they could make; 1. No drawers or cupboards to unpack (living out of bags for two weeks isnt fun) 2. The internet was terrible and there is no excuse for that in 2023

Room was fine for the price. A bit more effort around the building to clean up would make it a lot better. Not sure what goes on there during the night with some ladies but there was a lot of visits occurring. Overall the motel gets a pass
