“The room was very spacious with a comfortable 2 seater, so we could sit relaxed watching tv (instead of lying on the bed).
The separate kitchen was real good.
We accidently paid twice for the accommodation (first through booking.com and then at the motel). Within 24 hours we had a refund of one payment. Well done !!
The distance to the waterfront was 5 minutes walk. Great”
“Nice setting in a quiet street. Friendly staff, trying their best in a run-down property.”

Overall satisfactory, would stay again.”
