- Annie (7/5): - Clean, has small play ground, close to centre. The accommodation was clean and well maintained, which we really appreciated. It’s also conveniently located, close to the city centre and easy to get around. That said, the property feels quite old and could benefit from some updates. Overall, a decent stay for the location and cleanliness, but don’t expect anything modern or fancy. property and furniture are quite old

- Valeska (9/5): Nice and tidy in a good location - The owner was kind to provide us with a more suitable room once I explained two of our party had physical issues with climbing stairs. Car parking was confusing as owner said park anywhere even though bays were numbered, someone was in our park all the time. The Little appartment itself was clean, tidy and lovely. Although there was parking for every appartment, owner suggested we park anywhere. This caused confusion as we had parked in someone else's and they confronted us about it which was awkward.
- Dellice N. (8/5): L'endroit est tout à fait convenable pour une nuit de passage. Nous étions 3. - Enregistrement et accès pratiques
L'ensemble était conforme aux photos : bonne literie, grand lit pour 2 ou 1 place, salle de bain récente, de quoi se faire un café ou thé au réveil, une petite bouteille d'eau pour chacun. RAS
- Fran (8/5): Would definitely stay there again clean neat - How roomy it was No tv in bedroom
- Rachael (8/5): Very happy - Much better than I expected for the price! Modern bathroom, kitchen facilities, lovely master bedroom, also had a lovely view which I wasn’t expecting. Staff were helpful. Nothing for the price

- Samsu (4/5): I shall never stay there, also shall never recommend any other - Nothing to mention much. Renovated property.Indianlady is not trained at all how to interact with patron. Property renovated recently lack lots of minor tuning. Over priced with very poor location. Not proper view from all angel of room. Air condition is not in bed rooms, cheap quality materials and items are there. Location is very in convenient. Proper planning and well trained management.
Existing people are quick money maker, having no concept of good customer service. Indian lady in office room does not the manner, how to interact with guests
- Mohit (9/5): -
- Hettie (5/5): - very old and stove not looking good when you walked in kitchen it felt sticky. Always enjoyed staying there with Grandkid's
- James (10/5): Very welcoming and comfortable after a long day. - After a long day of travel, it was nice to get to the motel, because we were due in late, they messaged me saying the key will be in the room already so that saved time booking in, the room was fabulous as it was so comfortable and clean and warm had such a great sleep that might. The location is also great as it is in the quiet part of town and set back far enough so as you don't hear all the traffic so nice and quiet. This was the second time back as was just there a few weeks ago and will be going back there again. We cant find any faults.
- Julia (8/5): - Room is big when the air con was started, it was smelly for a while
- James (9/5): Way better than we had expected and will recommend it for anyone looking for a quality stay. - Very impressed with the room, was better than we expected and even enjoyed a lovely spa in the comfort of our room. Was set back from main road so didn't hear any road noise while there. Staff were so friendly and accommodating from the minute we arrived. Location was great as only 2 minutes to main town and wonderful food even though they have food delivered if you want to stay in. Great time had and looking forward to going back again soon. Can't put a negative on anything.

- Taany (10/5): -
- Charly (1/5): The room we were originally given had a terrible smell to it, there were stains on the pillow and a random bag left in t - Nothing The room we were originally given had a terrible smell to it, there were stains on the pillow and a random bag left in the room, there was a dirty and hairy comb left behind, bugs and spiders crawling along the walls and pubic hairs left on the bedding 🤮🤢🤮 We asked for a refund however the owner could only give us a different room which was only slightly better. The sheets still smelt and the bathroom smelt horrible. Had extremely loud neighbors and overall stay was uncomfortable and unsatisfactory.

Updated bathroom
Comfortable bed
- Ayuna (8/5): - The rooms were clean, bed linen were very clean. The bathroom is new.
