Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
In a word "awful". At least the bed appeared to be clean, unlike the rest of this tired, outdated motel. Money should be spent on a refurbishment, also the bathroom needs a decent clean. the only money spent was on the door locks, so that nobody mans the reception.

This place should be condemned

There is no reception, you receive a message with the code for the door, That’s all ok… but when you arrive you realise why. The outside of this property is in such bad condition it is dangerous. Some of the balastrades supporting the balcony are rusted through, moss everywhere and the garden is overgrown, pool is in need of repair and the gate is propped open with a rock. Please take this property off Hotels.Com
Filthy pool and rusty poles. Also pool gate is propped open with a rock
This is the stair case going up to the next level. It is carpet???? And covered in moss. Very slippery

We had one night stop over on our way North. Great spot easy access and parking. Right across the water for a nice walk and great outlook. Had takeaway from Caths Restaurant located on the premises which was so convenient and very tasty. Definitely stay again

Steve

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The room wasn't clean enough, the shower had mould in it in several places.Underneath the bedside cabinet and around edges of room was not the cleanest. The smoke detector was open and no battery in it. Mirror was not cleaned properly. Carpet stairs up to first floor to access the room were very dirty. Very dated room. Could hear the restaurant from our room, pots and pans and talking, also there were instructions NOT to prepare food with strong odour, but the room had the odour from the restaurant? Not what I expected from photos and for what we paid. Would NOT recommend this motel.
