The room was nicely renovated (looked exactly like the pictures online), exceptionally clean and the free easy parking was convenient too. The man who checked me in (didn't catch his name!) was very helpful, friendly and welcoming. The bed was also very comfortable. The only downside is, it is on a main road near the Pineapple Hotel so can be a bit noisy at all hours. Having said that, it is the first motel I've stayed at where I haven't been woken by people slamming their room doors closed first thing in the morning. I would stay again should I be in the area.

Pay that bit extra and stay elsewhere

Terrible stay we got in late self check in , Staying on 1st floor which was fine until we see the railing with a 2.5 year old he could easily climb the 3 rungs and fall off balcony Once we’re in the room toddler could easily unlock and open the door the handle is very low so we ended up barricading the door with chairs When we pulled the quilt back to get into bed looked as if a dog or a very hairy European had lost half their hair in the bed for that amount of hair the sheets must of been slept in disgusted we put pjs on and went to sleep didn’t have energy to ring after hours number Got to sleep only to be woken up multiple times by loud groups of people coming back to motel banging clanging talking really loud at all hours of the night
