Continental breakfast was included in booking, but restaurant was closed even when told by staff on phone night before that restaurant would be open. Scent from air freshener/diffusers in the main building used to access our room was very very strong, causing family members who suffer from migraines to start getting headache migraines. Extremely glad we took an air purifier with us and had it on turbo all night. Reception was not open the entire length of our stay. Was notified upon booking that reception would be open until 10pm for our late check in but phone call around 5-6pm stated they would be closing soon. I have messaged the property directly regarding these issues particularly the restaurant not being open but have had no response.

It said it was a hotel when it really was a motor inn. Little staff interaction, as the staff had limited hours. The room looked nice in th epicture, was looked nothing like the picture.at all. I swear that they put their worst rooms on Expedia. Its so unfair! Don't stay there unless its the last place in town.

Unfortunately I had to give a low review as there were so many people staying that we had to park outside the hotel. It was extremely noisy with people beeping their horns and stepping loudly above our room, the fridge buzzing and the toilet making noises every time people in another room used their toilet. The bright blue wifi light shone all night as well. We had a very poor sleep. The price, location and staff are good.

This hotel looks NOTHING like the photos online. The first concern was the run down reception area and the room was just as bad. Got there at 3:30 and told the room wasn’t ready and only after pushing were we assigned a room shortly after that. Skip bon at the front of the rooms and the entire site looks like an abandoned school camp. Air conditioner dripped which made the room wet and smelt like mould. I booked this room for my sister in law and felt awful to have booked somewhere so run down.

Good Overnight Stay - Mid Travel

This place was OK. Nothing too exciting to offer, rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable. Dont take the pictures on the website as fact. In fact, the area surrounding and in the premises was very run down. No upkeep, or very limited maintenance. No where to sit to enjoy the afternoons or evenings woth a cold beer or glass of wine. Actually, no seats what so ever, even outside your room to relax. Thats a big disappointment. Nothing like sitting back relaxing on a holiday, rather than having to sit on your bed, room bound. The area that is available has no warmth, and very run down. Needs some love, get a area for people to relax and enjoy. Would eat here if offered, and we stayed 2 nights, 1 would of been enough. Note: Staff were very friendly a d accommodating.
