Motorbike ok.

Nice atmosphere and location. Just shame no fan operational. Little bit hot and stuffy until open windows and door for a while. Some old fashion entertainment.

Good value - I heard the pub music till midnight and some traffic noise in the morning so not the quietest location. Staff were great and pub is nice place to hang out. There is nothing in the room other than a bed and sink.

It was probably the worst motel we've ever stayed in. Loud music playing past midnight. The room smelt of vomit. The bed was squeaky and extremely uncomfortable. The pillows were too soft and felt empty. The sensor lights in the female bathroom and along the corridor did not work. So we had to use our phone light each time we go to the toilet. The room was big, but there was no mini fridge, no kettle nor tea/coffee provided. Very disappointing.
