I love the convenience of their shuttle service to and from the airport. Their staff are very friendly and attentive. The room was clean, and just the right comfort for me to rest and relax before my next flight. Will definitely be booking with them in the future.

Staff were friendly and helpful - they very kindly organised dinner for me, and I was the only one in the restaurant but portion sizes were great and well priced. Room was very basic but clean, has strong AC and hot water. It wasn’t the quietest hotel in the evening but its proximity to the airport was what I needed, and I had a very early start anyway. Airport transfer was included in my room rate which was great!

We stayed in the 5 bed room. Our room was below average, sheets hadn’t been changed & there were ***stains on them. One of my family members was also bitten by bed bugs. Wouldn’t stay here again.

Where the motel is situated is perfect. The room needs renovation with some good lighting. The food was excellent but wait time was too long.

Disliked: Amenities
Staff and rooms were ok, some rooms better than others, but the noise and lack of consideration towards guests trying to get some sleep was literally disturbing. The shuttle driver, with loud diesel van turning the vehicle around right next to people's bedrooms. I didn't sleep all night ...

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Would not recommend, staff act like it’s an inconvenience to ask for assistance. Amenities are not offered at reception unless you already know about it. The rooms look like they cleaned it long ago and then left it without re cleaning for guests. The only good think I can say about this place is that there was air conditioning. Slow service is understandable, but not offering amenities, assistance or even a kind geeeting - unacceptable

Always a pleasure at this hotel. Everything is what you paid for. So convenient to the wharf and the airport and has a shuttle bus service as well. I just wish they have variety of foods including some salads. That said, their fried chicken is better than KFC. LOVE the place and the team❤️🙏

I made reservations at this hotel and immediately canceled. I was denied a refund and found out they resold my room. This is called robbery by policy.
