Comfy beds and well priced. It was in a good location for the event we were attending. However, the walls are extremely thin we heard everything word for word including room #1 having a great time til 4:30am. Also there was no hair dryer which I’ve never come across and was a little annoying. ##### Corrin Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Rayon 18 Aug 2025 Good size room. Super comfortable beds!!! Rooms are really warm, double glazing, I assume insulated walls and ceiling. Bathroom needs updating, but totally functional and nothing to stress about. ##### Rayon Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bob 1 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities Everything was perfect . ##### Bob Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Janice 28 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities I thought the room was very good for the money.

But we had 3 people staying, with only 2 glasses, 1 cup, 2 dinning chairs? The biggest disappointment was the lack of sound proofing, coming from upstairs we could hear everyone walking, everything they dropped, doors, water running, even talking from next door. We where there for a sports tournament around the corner, with 7am starts so just needed a bit of quiet. Oh the unlimited wifi was great, shower, hot water great, bathroom just needed somewhere to hang towels and shelf for toiletries, makeup etc. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 21 Nov 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Our room was very clean, spacious, comfortable bed.

Tidy room but no milk for coffee in the morning. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Oct 2020 ### 4/10 Poor #### Claire, PUKEKOHE, NZ 25 Oct 2020 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Clean unit.... BUT thats where it ended. We booked 2 rooms for 6 adult women. We had just completed a 3 day Badminton tournament and had the final function that night at the Hamilton Gardens. We had to ask twice to have the sofa beds in each room made up. There was NO hand soap on the basin and this during Covid. No shampoos or basic shower soap. Only 2 towels provided. We had 2 ask for an extra towel... despite the booking in the room for 3 adults. Minimal milk provided.... allowance for 1 cup only.. WIFI advertised but not functioning. Poor standard for a nearly new Motel. Not Recommended. ##### Claire Stayed 1 night in Oct 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 21 Oct 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Oct 2020 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Anacapri](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Falmouth-Hotels-Anacapri.h1874989.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Croxley Green](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Croxley-Green-Rickmansworth-Hotels.0-n3000444583-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Gansevoort Meatpacking](https://www.expedia.co.uk/New-York-Hotels-Gansevoort-Meatpacking.h987554.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Historical Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Historical-Center-Seville-Hotels.0-n6158990-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [5 Star Hotels in Golf del Sur](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Golf-Del-Sur-Hotels.s50-0-d6356329.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Maison Albar Hotels Le Vendome](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paris-Hotels-Maison-Albar-Hotels-Le-Vendome.h42693045.Hotel-Information) > > [5 Star Hotels in Muscat](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Muscat-Hotels.s50-0-d2238.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels near National Cycling Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/National-Cycling-Centre-Hotels.0-l6079183-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotel Riu Oliva Beach Resort - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/La-Oliva-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Oliva-Beach-Resort.h4606992.Hotel-Information) > > [Spa Hotels in Thirsk](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Thirsk-Hotels-Spa-Hotels.0-0-d4786-tSpaHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Rose And Crown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Rose-And-Crown.h30997181.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Wenceslas Square](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Wenceslas-Square-Hotels.0-l507867-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [4 Star Hotels in Berlin](https://www.expedia.co.uk/4Star-Berlin-Hotels.s40-0-d179892.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotel Riu Plaza New York Times Square](https://www.expedia.co.uk/New-York-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Plaza-New-York-Times-Square.h11677770.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Trastevere](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Trastevere-Rome-Hotels.0-n6046256-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Rixos Gulf Hotel Doha](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Doha-Hotels-Rixos-Gulf-Hotel-Doha.h23980.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Derby (EMA) to Tunis (TUN)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/ema/tun/east-midlands-to-tunis) > > [Alitalia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/ITA-Airways-Flights.cAZ.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Manchester (MAN) to Jakarta (CGK)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/man/cgk/manchester-to-jakarta) > > [Flights from Gatwick (LGW) to Edinburgh (EDI)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lgw/edi/london-to-edinburgh) > > [Flights from St. Louis (STL) to London (LHR)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/stl/lhr/st-louis-to-london) > > [flights from cincinnati northern kentucky intl airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/airports/cvg/flights-from-cincinnati-northern-kentucky-intl-airport) ### Cars > [Car hire in Dawlish Warren](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Dawlish-Warren.d6342845.Car-Hire-Guide) ### Activities > [Things to do in Bequia Island](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Bequia-Island.d11760.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Ostend Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ostend.d181444.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Paradise Island Adventure Golf](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paradise-Island-Adventure-Golf-Trafford-Park.d553248621558114276.Attraction) > > [Accra Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Accra.d280.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General > [Visit Worthing](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Worthing.dx177868) > > [Visit Alcobendas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alcobendas.dx55227)
