We had a lovely tasteful room with everything colour coordinated. The amenities were excellent, the bed was most comfortable, the shower was good and it was very quiet….what more could one want? The reception staff were super friendly and check-in and out was a breeze. We highly recommend this gem of a motel/hotel

Sunnymead is pursuing a cool retro art deco concept that we found very attractive. The room interiors seem to have been renovated with new bathrooms and comfortable beds. The weather did not cooperate for us to enjoy the pool area but we can see how that would be fun during warmer weather. If they want to take the property to the next level they could upgrade the single pane windows with double glazed so the bathrooms are not freezing despite having the heat running all night. Also, the nespresso coffee machines are a nice touch but ours in unit 10 was old and not functioning properly.The location is excellent for walking and there are a number of dining options nearby.
