Negative Reviews
negative:
Breakfast is not an option
Along with no dedicated on-site restaurant, the accommodation does not currently offer a breakfast option of any kind - something that was understandably criticised at times. Dining choices, however, are within walking distance, helping to lessen this problem to an extent.
negative:
Noise can be an issue
Although not always a concern, a notable amount of past guests encountered bothersome noise during their time at the motel. Whether it was from passing traffic for rooms that face the street or internal facilities such as the bathroom extractor fan, noise-related issues have been reported on occasion.
negative:
Wi-Fi quality could be improved
Based on overall feedback, the free Wi-Fi was somewhat seen in a negative light by former visitors that stayed at the accommodation. Connecting to the wireless Internet has supposedly proven to be tricky at times.
