Beds super comfortable. Location excellent. Bathroom needs to be updated desperately.
The location is great for the theatre and cafes/restaurants.
The room was nice and clean and the complimentary tea/coffee etc was appreciated. Although the room themselves are getting dated, e.g. the blind did not close probably.
The bed was comfortable, room clean and area was quiet. Added bonus of complimentary cereals, tea, coffee, milk and biscuits. Only thing needed was block out curtains as a lot of light did come through the blinds. Overall a good motel for an affordable price.

Room was clean and comfortable. Very easy to check in and out.
Bed was comfy with crisp linens, large bath towels. Needed an extra mirror other than the one in the bathroom. We asked for a power board or extension lead as my mums cpap sleep apnea machine couldn’t plug into power points as they are right at the bottom of the skirting boards. After some time I was notified via text message that they had found 2 & had left them on the table in our room which was helpful. Also a bedside table next to single bed would be a good addition. Overall enjoyable stay in a convenient location.
Really liked this motel for our one night stay. Good location, clean and comfy bed. Liked the complimentary cereal as well thanks for a nice stay we will book again
