The door was very hard to shut. It had to be slammed shut. The aircon in the common are and 1 of the bedrooms didn't work. The place was otherwise ok.

Hampton Villa Motel
My review only is parking was un organised, I with a dissabillity, with walking cane. Parked out side our room 31 we went out and on return, our park was taken. We did find one at the very end, but really, should be numbered.
