Would not stay again

If you do not mind listening to the people in the unit next door or their music/TV at night, and are keen to wear the ear plugs the motel provides, do not stay here. We actually left that night, knowing we would not get a decent night sleep. A heater was provided but took sometime to warm up the room, with no double glazing or insulation it was very cold.

Clean and spacious

Spacious room. Much more noisy than I realized- some traffic noise but the trains roar by every 2-3 hours ( or feels like it as it was difficult to keep a track of the regularity through the night) so very disrupted sleep!
