I love the little Courtyard with the barbecue and benches for guests to use. Management was super welcoming to myself and my service dog and everyone was very friendly. The room needs a little bit of work but I can tell it's in process. Light bulbs need to be checked. There was no coffee machine my second stay, but I didn't ask about that so I can't complain. Very clean and comfortable.

Sometimes you find a gem....this is NOT it! Check in, no one at reception, just a number to phone. Exterior poor maintenance, peeling paint. Interior, no tea and coffe, mix and match battered furniture. Fridge with broken fascia. Small microwave but no cups, plates or cutlery. Bathroom very small with toilet between shower and basin with barely room to pass. Towel rack hanging off wall, bathmat dirty and holed. Air con unit badly fitted and noisy. The only plug next to bed was on the base of a lamp. But was off when the lamp was off. No good for a CPAP. Never saw any staff during two day stay. Expedia should drop this place like a hot coal.

This property should not be on your list of acceptable motels. So dirty and unkempt. I almost slept in the car! In fact I used 2 blankets that were in my car to sleep on I was afraid of bed bugs!! So I slept fully clothed!! Horrible and I want a refund!!! Don’t you do any due diligence work?

We had a really pleasant experience at this motel. The room had all the basic amenities I needed, including a mini-fridge and great Wi-Fi. It was a clean, comfortable, and functional space that made for a pleasant stay.

Property owner very rude. We asked for a refund after going into room and finding all the problems. He said we would have to go through Expedia. Then he wouldn’t take Expedia’s call to authorize a refund. Expedia made many attempts and owner refused. We questioned him when we left if he was going to refund and he said what you call me a scammer. Well yes you sir are a scammer!

Good condition, clean, very firm mattresses

A good motel. Room was in good condition and clean. AC worked well, which was appreciated in summer. Mattresses weren't comfortable, very firm. That was the only downside for us.

My room was clean and had nice fresh linens and towels. Staff were very friendly and helpful even offering directions to amenities. The room is a bit run down…holes in walls and damaged floor. Bathroom has been refreshed and I enjoyed a nice hot shower! I will come again. Cheers!
