it was only a one night stay, wouldn't want to stay any longer.
Pros:

the room was clean, bed and linen ok, good parking at the door.

Cons:

the stench of the sulphur artesian water, not the motels fault, just is what it is. but could not shower as it was so overpowering, the shower was a solid cubical in a very small bathroom, that made it worse. the shower curtain was so old it fell apart when pulling it back. not value for money in this accommodation.

Whilst clean & comfortable, the room needs updating!
Pros:

It was clean & bed comfortable.

Cons:

There was no bedside tables, the only 2 stools that were there, one was very unstable & a safety issue. The vanity was in room where bed & tv are instead of in the actual bathroom.
