Nice tidy motel, close to town and the RSA. Was fairly basic so rather overpriced for what it was

Heating a huge problem - appears heating regulated from office and turned off around 2am on a night that was 4 degrees - comfortable beds but having to do dishes next to toilet is not hygienic. Quite location close to shopping

Thank you for your comments. The heating is regulated by yourself in the room. There is a thermostat in the room and the temperature overnight according to the met service only got down to 8 deg. You didn't do have dishes and if you read the compendium we are happy to do the dishes.

Nice and central. Bit noisier than I expected.
