While the bed and bedding was nice, the towel rail was broken, the sliding door into the toilet didn't slide very well. Big white stains on the curtains. Reception was meant to be open until 7pm but wasn't. And you needed to check in before you got there. No parking unless you book it but it doesn't say that until you arrive.

The room looked like it wasn’t even cleaned before we stayed. Dust everywhere in the bathroom. The bath was broken and the water was shut off on the second night of our stay which meant we couldn’t shower or brush our teeth before checking out. The staff was friendly though

Staff member was friendly. Facilities were tidy but not clean, also in need of some serious maintenance. Motel did come up when I searched for free parking but was actually $15 per night. It was okay but we won't be back.

If you are after a cheep very basic room, you will be fine, it’s really a 2 star hotel in my opinion. Very dated and worn, but the bed was comfortable.
