Bathrooms outdated, basin taps needed to be secured. Blinds facing car park were broken. Chipped mug. Smokers should be given an area outside the motel building and not down the upstairs corridor to smoke as they make a noise and disturb people trying to sleep. Beds were clean and very comfortable . Great idea providing cereal for breakfast.

Booking and check-in was all automated on-line and by SMS. It was a very efficient and unique experience. Despite the poor shower water pressure, the unit was well equipped, tidy and very clean. The Motel is conveniently located and within very easy walking distance of shops, amenities and the beach. We would definitely stay here again.

Centre of the main shops and coffee bars are walk in distance and beaches some walking distance. The only thing is that the motel is outdated and needs to have some loving Care sheets are clean. Floor looks fine. Carpet looks old a few mosquitoes around the area trying to kill them at night And cockroach just needs to be taken care of. I would say this motel is a three star.

Not sure if we lucked out and booked an expensive night, but in essence was very expensive for a bog basic, 2 or 3 star, decades old motel. Nothing horribly wrong but nothing specific to say "This was better than expected". Owner's clearly follow the old adage of "If it ain't obviously broke, don't bother making guests happier by refreshing it." Some milk for the blend 43 in the fridge would have been appreciated.

Spacious clean and comfortable rooms, in a very old building with no facilities and no sign of any staff. Ensuite was clean and functional but has not been updated for decades. Car park is in need of resurfacing. Location is a little remote from any shopping.

Noisiest accomodation ever. Could clearly here people talking through the thin walls on both sides of room 2, and heavy stomping above in room 12 at all hours of the night. Got about 12 interrupted hours of sleep over the 3 night stay. Wouldn’t recommend.

Overall the property was quite good. Contactless check-in via keyless entry was great. Rooms were clean but carpets looked a bit old. Would stay here again.

All in all this property is too expensive and outpaced by the remainder. I would not recommend it, a) for the price and b) out of date. Regettably, there is no place locally which we would consider without paying much more.

Deadlocked door separarting our room to room next door. Easily hear a pin drop from guests next door. Asked for a Deluxe Queen bed room. It was just 2 single beds joined together. Uncomfortable for 2 people to sleep in. Other than that, was nice.

Very clean, spacious and lots of amenities in the room. Walking distance to beach, shops and restaurants. Breakfast cereal and milk supplied which was very nice to have. Lots of power points near the bed but so low on floor could not plug my medical device in. No one to talk to to ask for an extension cord etc as no one on site and no phone number displayed in room to ring. Shower had a leak and flooded bathroom. It was our second stay and would stay again.
