We tried to check in early as we were just off a cruise, even just leave our stuff so we could go for lunch but our booking was unable to be found then we were told it was under a different name! Not ours ! Eventually the booking was found and the expression "'my bad" was muttered by the receptionist. We are still waiting on an apology. The pool was like pea soup and we didn't think it was safe to swim in. The room was clean and spacious for 5 and the water pressure was good. It was so hot when we were there and so disappointed we couldn't swim, the motel having a pool was one of the reasons we booked it. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/da662d28-a3c1-457f-b97b-d38629dfaba8-1769928085221.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/64ac796d-beda-46ed-8282-a97d5a527d01-1769928085412.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### sandra Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2026 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jade May 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Friendly staff, clean rooms.. would stay again ##### Jade Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Suzana Jul 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The spot of this property is very convenient and close to all restaurants and other attractions.
