This property was poorly maintained, dogs barked all night long from a nearby room, it wasn’t until we tried to leave the next morning at 8:30 that we realised we couldn’t check out until 9 as the office wasn’t open and there was no drop box. Waited until 9:15 and still the office wasn’t open! Had to leave the key and then call later to tell them where we left it as we had an appointment to get to. Would not recommend.

There was a problem between LastMinute and the Motel with the booking. I booked a Family Room with double and three singles, Lamplighter had me booked as a double only. Don't know who caused that problem. The staff member did resolve the problem by giving us two rooms at no extra charge for which I'm grateful. Unfortunately the motel is past it's useby date, rough and run down. Sheets were clean, room wasn't cleaned properly. Owners need to invest and manage properly or sell!
