These motels are older, but as a previous motel owner, I found them to be spotless. The towels would be the best we have ever had in a motel, the bed was excellent and value for money, very hard to beat. Thank you for an excellent stay.

Property was excellent value, close to town centre. Managers shifted a person to give us a ground floor room, as wife on a walking stick. Heatpumps would help to cool units in the summer.

This is a property that needs serious modernising. It has not been changed since the 70’s. there were also no pillow protectors, mattress protectors to prevent bedbugs. One pillow & one duvet inner which had no cover was stained yellow.
