“The room was perfect for our needs, comfortable and close to public transport. The train station and tram stop is a 5 minute walk. Restaurants, pubs and shops are a short walking distance. Finding the motel was very easy as well.”

“This is a standard 60’s, family run, old fashioned motel. It is nicely maintained with a renovated, very nice bathroom with a huge basin top to set your cosmetics bag on (with room to spare), and a fantastic light and mirror!! We had a twin room...”
