The rooms smelled like they've been smoked in. Also we left behind our son's favourite teddy and when I rang the next day to ask if it had been found I was told it had been thrown away already. He was pretty upset.

6/10 Good

Staff made me and wife upgrade to a larger room (and pay extra) because we had a baby with us and the sound proofing in the regular rooms was not sufficient; however we could still hear the rooms next to us as clear as day; so it was pretty much a bogus excuse to get more money out of us. The shower had almost no pressure and was pretty unsatisfying; almost down to a trickle, and the double bed was two single beds that were a little uneven. Otherwise it was okay for a motel.
