Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
The room decor is very old but the worst part was I booked for a queen bed and it was a queen bed base with a double mattress, so my husband didn’t fit and it was a terrible sleep. We couldn’t use the thermal pool in the morning as they only run from 3pm -9.30pm so it was cold. Very disappointed.

I liked having a private thermal pool. I had never had that before, so that was a nice touch. The room was clean, and it was nice having clean towels and the rubbish being cleared each day. As a personal experience, the Wi-Fi was spotty, but I could at least use my laptop if my phone wasn't connecting. Other than that, it was a good experience.

Lovely hosts and super clean! Yes, it's an older motel, but it was so clean and serviced daily. Really easy to find and access from a busy road, had convenient parking outside the room, and it was surprisingly quiet considering its location! Felt really safe as a woman staying on my own and the private thermal pool was a lovely treat too. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks!

This property is very tired and needs to be redecorated. The thermal pool was only just warm and is very much need of a paint. I had to ask for a hair dryer as there was not one in the unit. The bench top was very worn and broken at the edges
