The room was spacious and the bed comfy. A small sofa in the living area was nice. I don’t like fixed head showers, rather old fashioned. Also would have liked more shelves/storage - the bedside tables were so small there wasn’t room for anything apart from the bedside lamp. The motel has a garden area with seating but is on a busy main road.

We stayed here for two nights in mid-December. The people running the Motel were friendly and helpful. Our room was clean and the bed was comfy. The noise from the road next-door was not very loud, which was nice. Overall we had a lovely stay.

Good accom for a 1 night stay.
We had a one night stay and it worked out well for us as a family of four with the beach, take-aways, cafes nearby. The staff were friendly and helpful and even thought it is on a busy road the unit was quiet. The kitchen(ette) area is quite small so if staying longer you might feel cramped with 4 people in the space but it was fine for our purpose.

It was a very brief stay for one night, but it was perfectly fine for a quick stay. There is a bit of traffic noise and a busy road especially in peak hour, but easy to city centre and beach.
