I am extremely disappointed as I booked this property for the indoor pool and spa. When we went to use them it was locked. I called reception as they were closed and was told they don’t open it during winter. Perhaps advertise that it’s not open. I could have booked a more modern property for less than I paid for this place. Rooms are very outdated. PowerPoint in bathroom wasn’t even attached to the wall so the wires were showing. I wouldn’t stay here again

The room was tiny, bed & 2 seat couch were uncomfortable, no bedside table. Way over priced for what you get. It was clean, very old but clean and housekeeping ladies were lovely. Total disappointment in the room.

Great showers, plenty of room for trucks, it’s an old motel, but it works. Only down side is the price, for what it is you can get better for the same price or even a bit less.

Room clean and roomy and bed comfortable. It is positioned next to the airport and near the antique centres. Room had no air conditioning and not much ventilation so had a poor sleep. It was a hot and humid day. Need to put in air conditioning and maybe a ceiling fan.
