8/10 Good
"I want to say a few words about this place The staff member l interacted with was excellent. This place is in theprocess of refurbishment. The place was freshly painted with new carpet in my room. Few things to note:1) please empty rubbish bins prior to next guest - l am sure this was an oversight but annoying, 2) the room backed onto a solid brick wall. This was unfortunate and what made it worse were electrical cables etc all over the place. Some lattice attached to this wall would have made things better or some climbing scrubs - just something to consider? The space under the sink had an annoying smell. This could be solved with some White King poured down the sink or some Baking Powder. Overall my impression was good and l would come back."

"Our two bedroom unit was spotlessly clean, spacious, and warm. It was an old house converted to two flats, now motel units. As there were 4 of us (2 couples) we found that the toilet should be a separate room! And mirrors in the bedrooms would have been handy. I think that this unit will be upgraded to match the other units of the motel complex - which are exceptional - we’ve stayed in those before. The staff were very helpful."
