Superb well priced merivale accomodation

Superb host. Amazing clean fresh renovation. Very pleased. One thing that must be considered is there is no air conditioner. For me a must for any accomodation.

This is a motel in excellent condition. Recently refurbished and kept clean and tidy. It's quiet considering it's in town. We stopped here twice, first ti.e direct from the airport, 2nd to break a journey. Both times the guy on reception was very welcoming, offered milk with no prompting. 1st ti.e Expedia had failed to pay them despite taking the money from me! He was so relaxed about it he even apologised to me for the inconvenience and made the whole experience hassle free, such a nice guy!

Very helpful and friendly The rooms are spacious and clean, and you can cook your own meals as long as you have the ingredients and seasonings. It's a 5-minute walk to the supermarket, a 20-minute walk to Riva Side Market, and there are also McDonald's, a liquor store, a steakhouse, and an Italian restaurant nearby. Thank you to the owner, Terry! and his wife! See you again someday!
