Staff were amazing and accommodating when i unexpectedly needed an extra bed, bringing a mattress down. Location was only a 5-10 min drive to places we needed with pub next door for dinner. We stayed during the week and it wasnt rowdy. Parking could be an issue if motel was full but we were told we could park next door if needed. Air con was cold and a welcome relief from the disgusting humidity

Great accomodation. Great Western standard.

Our stay was fantastic. Pool lovely and refreshing, room was clean and the bed wonderful and comfortable, oh and quiet. I have only 1 complaint. They just need to clean the exhaust fan o er the shower then they would work better.
