Really impressed with this motel. Close to everything, easy check in and parking, spacious clean room and really friendly staff. Basic breakfast included was so convenient. I thought it would be noisy but with the door shut I didn’t hear any road traffic at all. Would stay here again for sure.

The unit itself was adequate for our needs. Unfortunately with the current closure of state highway 1 heavy traffic had been re routed and went right past this property. We booked and paid for 3 nights but left after one night as we virtually had no sleep.

Good value motel very close to the hospital. Stayed in an apartment which was very clean and tidy with good facilities. It's located on a busy roundabout so there's a bit of road noise to contend with - earplugs are supplied!
