The reception was cordial, respectful and responsive. It was professional. More grease to the elbow of Swan Motel, especially the staff members who are core to running the day-to-day services of this place. Many thanks.

Big updated rooms and bathrooms are a plus. Convenient airport shuttle service is available. At first a staff member couldn't find my reservation, but the morning person was very pleasant and helpful and straightened everything out. I just wish there was a hairdryer available in the bathroom.

Find somewhere else

Non smoke rooms smell like smoke, customer service sucks they think you’re threatening them because you speak firmly. Music is played all night, during the day there’s barley anyone and at night time people use this motel for drugs and sex
