Upgrades to the structure and fittings are noticeable

Old and not cheap
Pros:

The room is fairly clean.

Cons:

1. Shower pressure is very very low
2. No stove for cooking but does have an air-fryer and microwave
3. The electric fan in the toilet has a flap outside that keeps on flapping up and down making loud noises when windy
4. Price is not cheap for an old motel and old facilities

Pros:

The unit was very clean and tidy.
Parking was provided outside the unit.
Every thing we needed was provided for.

Cons:

The bed was VERY UNCOMFORTABLE
It felt like springs were poking in my back.. I couldn't sleep in the queen bed. I had to sleep in the single bed.
OMG it was the worst night ever.

Exceeded expectations of what we paid for
Pros:

Very friendly staff, basic facilities but clean and well priced for what we got. I have stayed here before and would happily stay again

Cons:

Shower pressure was not great, being very critical and not overly important, somewhere to lounge in the lounge would be something to think about

prima verblijf
Pros:

Helaas hadden wij de pech dat het noodweer was tijdens ons verblijf. Door het noodweer was de stroom in de hele regio uitgevallen en deden bepaalde voorzieningen het niet. De gastvrouw was allerhartelijkst en heeft ons zo goed ze kon geholpen met alles. Ze was zeer begaan met al haar gasten. Grote complimenten aan haar.
