WORST LADY EVER

The lady was so arrogant. I booked online and she says nope and left 2 kids and i woth no where to stay and wouldnt give my money back. Absolutely appalling. Someone so arrogant should not be allowed to work with people. Like agressive dogs muzzle it.

No Frills Highway Motel

Basic, no frills highway motel. Our room at the rear was very quiet. The room was clean, with frig, hospitality tray, comfortable bed, good bathroom. Blinds did not block the outdoor lighting.

Unfortunately each room had a strange odour, unit 1 the TV did not function, we were then transferred to unit 9 same odour and TV problem, the owner did attempt to satisfy our needs and was very attentive, we decided to move on to another motel. Pet Friendly Motels we will avoid at all costs in the future!

Greeted very rudely and told Expedia was banned. Offered to leave after full refund and she then gave us a room key. Not pleasant. On the plus side, it was clean. Coffee etc. Bed was comfortable. Very loud at night with sugar cane trains all night plus trucks on highway. This is my very first negative review and I am sad to post this. I would not recommend this motel. There are others in the town further from the train tracks and hopefully kinder staff.
