Lovely views from our unit but unfortunately the noise from the road is constant until late at night and then starts up at about 4.30 am. Clean and spacious motel unit and lovely to have the separate bedroom

Good sized bedroom and bathroom. Steep step into shower - this may be problematic for some. Also, steep carpeted stairs up to the first floor unit. Need to take a lot of care when carrying luggage. Friendly staff and comfortable bed. Reasonably quiet despite heavy trucks using nearby road.

Didn't like the ramp from the bedroom to the kitchnette area - you expect a step in the middle of the night if getting up in the dark not a ramp :) Other than that it was clean and tidy and the front desk was very helpful on arrival

Morris

Disliked: Amenities
It is time for an update to the place as it’s looking pretty worn. The jug worked but the water tasted metallic, the top of the pan didn’t fit properly, the light above the single bed was missing and the front door really was in need of a paint job. Not real value for the price.

The unit doesn't have air conditioning or natural airflow to offset. Recommend offering a range of pillows instead of all flat, hard ones.
