Work in progress, budget friendly

The place is being done up, it's a work in progress. It's secure and comfy enough. Some spray and wipe, and a shower curtain wouldn't hurt.

It served its purpose; however, it was very unclean. The sheets were clean though. Also, during the night it was very noisy. A vacuum cleaner going late in the evening. They were NOT vacuuming our room.

It was cheap, but it needs work done on it. My room door was hanging off one hinge, and the door handle on an external door came off in my hand. Basic facilities (no microwave) but comfortable enough bed for me and well located

Bio hazard alert

I have to say this is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. It is a bio-hazard waiting to happen. The filth was astounding. Even if a room is cheap it should be clean. Blood on wall tiles in bathroom, toothpaste over taps, smears of who knows what and hair over shower walls. Brown smears on side table and bed head,dirt and grime in floors. Window broken so didn't shut properly. Room was freezing and no electric blanket or additional blankets. Disgusting and would not ever recommend ! Have countless photos but they wouldn't upload

Don't like self check in, foyer and stairs are awful. Limited parking which was only told about by email giving self check in details, no lift. Shower was weird with no curtain or door. 2 cups and 2 teaspoons only supplied, no toaster, plates, knives so couldn't have toast in the morning. location is good. We had an end room which had a great view but overall would not recommend.

Blue Hills Motel offers affordable accommodation in an excellent location. Staff were friendly and very helpful. The rooms are basic but comfortable and the price is unbeatable. I had two bookings throughout the duration of my stay, so experienced a renovated and unrenovated room. Some guests may find the unrenovated rooms shabby, however if you are happy with a bed and clean bathroom, it has everything you need. My only complaint is that the rooms were a bit dusty. This could be easily managed during the cleaning routine. Other than this, I enjoyed my stay and would return.

Great location. Very much a budget motel. Stayed five nights and the room was not serviced duting that time. The room was OK, the bed good and the hot water excellent. The whole biulding is very much in need of major renovation and repair.
