We had an amazing time The beds were super comfy and it’s very clean. We had the room overlooking the football field. The roof had a balcony attached which became my favourite spot. The best part was meeting Fraser. He gave us a super warm welcome and made sure our stay was perfect in every way. While cooking I accidentally dropped and broke the microwave turntable but he replaced it within ten minutes and did not charge us anything extra at all. We are very grateful to him. The motel is within walking distance to McDonald s and supermarkets and the sea front. Enjoyed our stay a lot. I'm very happy that we chose this motel. Will definitely come back.

Kelly and Fraser make our stay at Admirals feel like a home away from home. So different to arriving at a property and letting yourself in with an electronic keypad. Thank you for your excellent personal service.
