Great Location

This property was in a great location, with close proximity to the beach, but also walking distance to town for dinner. The room was comfortable for our family, and perfect for our short stay.

False advertising, hotel does not reflect pictures. Room old, dirty and smelly. Holes in the wall, stained chairs, bathroom mouldy, pillows and bedding yellow. Absolutely the worst motel we have ever stayed in. Not worth half the price paid.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
When arrived, we could only get 3 tv channels. Our booking stated cable was available. When asking reception staff they said they didn’t know about it and yes, only a few tv channels available (not HD TVs). I stated the booking information advised otherwise and staff said they’d only just taken over management and don’t know. Upon returning to our room late at night, we noticed our shower had quite a lot of male body hair on the shower base. The previous guest had also blown their nose in the shower and this was dried on the shower tiles. It was too late to notify staff. Our towels were fraying also. No big deal, just unprofessional. We only required a bed & bathroom for the night for a very short overnight stay, nothing fancy. But this was unclean and unhygienic. I work in a family run cleaning business and would never leave a bathroom in that condition. Very disappointed and could not advise staff upon checkout as office closed. Have emailed the property to advise and that we also have photos for reference if required.

Property is close to the water and restuarants, location is great. Its a basic motel, could do we a bit of an update but comfortable and clean. Shower runs cold if you don't get in first thing in the morning, and smoking is allowed on the balcony which gets into your room if your neighbour smokes
