William, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We appreciete very much that a room was made available for us with our 2 small dogs. When we booked the pet friendly Motel, there was no option to select pet or no pet. So we assume all was good with pets. The managers were so helpful. The room was great. Comfortable bed and pillows. Nice bathroom and shower. Highly recommend this Motel.

6/10 Good

The floors under the beds need to vaccumed this is the second time in 6 months that I have said the same thing. Different rooms and still the same issues we had pistachios nut shells all under on of the beds and rubish. The parking is terrible not designated and watched two cars for one room which then meant we couldn’t even park for our room. General repairs you can’t use the exhaust fan in the bath room which also controls the main light as it screams and makes a terrible noise.
Megan, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very central location Clean comfy room

We found the unit to be clean easily accessible with having a car park literally at the door. After a long drive we found having room service available for a meal was excellent - the meal itself & customer service. Jimmy D's restaurant is also open to dine in - breakfast also available for room service if ordered the night before. We will definitely stay again.
Pauline, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Comfortable overnight stay

Very quick check-in. Our room was spacious and clean with a comfortable bed. Lowset older style motel with convenient parking outside front door. Some aeroplane noise early in the night, but this ceased by bedtime. Would stay here again.

The King Bed was Aweful both woke with a sore back way too soft just sunk into it. Sheets weren’t very nice very stiff not overly nice. The shower head was too forceful it pelted you like needles. The fridge and freezer didn’t work properly half cold at best and freezer didn’t freeze our blocks.
