Great, very handy to venue for the tournament we had. Ample parking, and minimal noise from others
Pros:

The space was great and very user friendly

Cons:

A proper stove would be nice - and a cover for the skylight upstairs ... had that been covered it would have been good cos then we'd have been able to heat the room and not lose the heat immediately.

Also, security lights on til 5am? the light still came in through the top of the sadly loose curtains

Pros:

It's about as good as you can get for the cost, I know with accomodation you very much get what you pay for, and I'm satisfied with what I received

Cons:

The spa bath-shower combination is quite difficult to get in and out of, even with the rail at the side. I am quite short so it was a bit difficult for me.

worst stay. No value for money. Spent super clod night with my kids. Big loss.
Pros:

nothing

Cons:

the worst event motel I have visited ever. Very very unclean. All dirty corners. Broken and damaged things like curtains, windows etc. No proper equipped as advertised. The worst thing is no proper heating system. We spent super cold night in July that too with our kids. I asked for more heater and they did provide extra heater. But those heaters were very cheap quality and not working properly. Even 1 star rating is also too much. They deserve negative rating -5 stars. Please please don’t visit there, specially during winter.

I enjoyed my stay..very quiet and well rested.Thanku Alcamo 🙂🙂
Pros:

I went out for breakfast

Cons:

A heatpump wouldve been better than the heaters provided because one clapped out during what seemed like the coldest day/night but overall very comfortable
