OMG we had fantastic service, from the lady who checked us in, who was so lovely, to the gentleman (& he was a gentleman) who took us to our room, who insisted on carrying our bags up the flight of stairs, which would have felt like a mountain with my large case (be carried two). Our room was a upstairs studio and is was clean tidy and just would we needed. This studio seemed to be newly updated. The bed is the only thing I will mention. Even though is felt on the harder side, I had a great sleep. It also has a bar/restaurant, which we did. It use. Highly recommend this place to stay.

I’ve been traveling for work over the past three days, and this hotel was by far the nicest and most enjoyable place I stayed. The rooms are immaculate, modern, and have clearly been recently renovated with a keen eye for detail. The design is both stylish and comfortable, making it feel quite upscale and welcoming. The room had all the amenities I needed, and the overall atmosphere was very relaxing. It’s evident that a lot of care has been put into maintaining this property, as everything felt fresh and clean. For the price, this motel offers incredible value. I will definitely choose to stay here again on my next trip, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quality, affordable stay with a touch of luxury!
