Lovely helpful staff. Rooms are a little outdated but good for the price you pay.

We made a last minute booking. It was a great price, had smiley staff & he was welcoming. They held another room for me the next night which we confirmed quite late. So, we appreciated having somewhere to stay. We really enjoyed the spa bath & fwkt it was great value for money. Thanks 😉

Artistic ambience, pink flamingos and colour lights puts this place above the ordinary

We stayed 1 night with 3 children, and our bed setting was awesome. We had reasonable sized beds, with a comfort sized room.

They supplied an old electric heater that did not work. Just a poor place that wasn't clean.

Room was clean but small, dated and worn. Tv did not work and when we realised, office was closed so could not be fixed. Outside lights were turned off so pitch black when we walked back to the unit at night.

For an older style motel, this was a great last minute find. Excellent value for money, pleasant large room and comfy bed.
Thanks
