The Matador Motel is my motel of choice in Sale. I’ve stayed here a couple of times and both stays have been great. It’s quiet, very spacious, and excellent value for money. The rooms are clean and comfortable, making it an easy, stress-free stay. I’d happily stay here again and would definitely recommend it.

Staff were lovely and welcoming. We liked the amenities such as guest laundry and a simple breakfast. Some nice little details like complimentary chocolate. Downsides were that the motel is quite old and we shared the room with a number of bugs and harmless spiders.
