“Good location and clean. Thanks for the towels for the spring baths.”
May be a bit outdated the room we had. The room next door, where are friends were had been modernised with a recent make over. Both rooms very clean though. Great location.

“We enjoyed our stay but felt the above areas were in a time warp!”
Very much in need of an overhaul! Bathroom & toilet well past their use by date. Toilet seat had big scratches and indents in it. In fact I haven't seen a toilet cistern as old as this for a very long time... There were 3 mirrors but none with a output to plug in a hairdryer...

“Best value for money in the area. This place has character, in the best sense of the word.”
This is an old style motel, this is not a criticism, it is a plus. Large sitting room, seperate bedroom and small toilet and shower. The Kitchenette supplied with all the utentils needed. The bed comfortable and with superior quality linen. All together makes for excellent value for money. The place has character and is very comfortable. I loved it and I would certainly book again if in this area. Simone was a charming host.

“Comfy older motel”
Quickest hot water and it was properly hot. Comfy couch and arm chair. Well equiped kitchen. Most parking under covered carport. Very near the hot pools and town. Fresh regular or trim milk offered. Electric blankets. Small bathroom, but it does have a separate toilet.
