Had trouble opening the door because it was rotting. Room seemed clean but stank as though it had not been aired for a long time. We both decided not to stay there, returned the key and booked into the caravan park’s cabin instead.

The motel looked un-cared for, drab and old. The staff were accomodating, but the check in area was very uninviting. The carpets and window dressings were shabby. The bathroom was old and the shower door had a build up of calcium scale. The outdoor swimming pool was not sparkling and looked uninviting. On the upside, the shower was hot and great water pressure. The beds were comfortable

Try to push on a bit further if you can

A very warm welcome at check in but sadly downhill from there. Very run down motel, but, clean and comfortable beds. Bathroom leaked, don’t know wear from, water all over the floor and so slippery. Sadly not much choice on our route and the only thing that saved it was the lad at reception
