Just don't go, appalling service, awful rooms, etc etc. this really is worse than the previous trip advisor reviews suggested! Pay more and stay somewhere acceptable. It is the worst place I have stayed in years.

I booked into this hotel as my flight arrived at midnight. There was a staff member manning the reception, which was great, despite the very early morning check-in! It was a shame that the internet access had to be paid for especially as i'd expect it to be included for a hotel of this price range. The hotel room that... More

Hello and thank you for giving us the opportunity to accommodate you recently. And, thank you for letting us know your comments of your ground floor unit. We find guests arriving after the middle of the night feel it is easier to be accommodated on the ground floor instead of carrying luggage upstairs as we do not have a lift.... More

The reception staff was great. No complaints about the reception on check in or on departure. No elevator in the hotel. We had heavy cases we had to get up the stairs. Thank goodness we only had one flight of stairs. Rooms very dark. Like a prison cell - we think! An old spring mattress. Every time we rolled over... More

I stayed here overnight before a connecting flight for a business trip. I found the staff to be very helpful and accommodating. I arrived after 9pm, while there was no one at reception we buzzed through and they served us very quickly. The rooms are a very good size and kept very clean. Breakfast was very nice, with a great... More

Old fashion motel trying to be modern and needs more to bring it up to date. It would appear the price has been adjusted accordingly so I felt value was OK.

This place is just well beyond its serviceable life. The motif is hard to describe. Sort of like a cross between a 60's coffee shop and a civil defense bunker. My room had zero warmth or charm. The bed was very basic. The walls were a texture-coated dingy concrete, and the furniture was a dark brown wood finish that added... More

Our family of five stayed for 2 nights in a 'family room'. The room was small but had beds and a table and did the job for us that not many other hotels in the area could. However, was not very clean and appeared to be a bit old and worn out. Would probably not stay here again.
