OYO Chris's Motel

If what you are looking for is a place to put your head down for the night for a bargain price then this is it. I read some of the previous reviews before booking and as a person who has stayed in a dodgy hostel or two was prepared. Yes the room is small. If you go for the cheapest option then it is a single bed, a side table and room to swing open the door. However the room is well appointed. There is plenty of storage, a television as well as standard kettle and hot drink selection. The towel and sheets are clean though the mattress was a little on the thin side. Is it a little worn. Yes. But generally it was in good condition. The walls are on the thinner side so you can listen along to your neighbours tunes. My neighbour stopped a little after midnight and I could hear some lads chatting in the hallway but otherwise it was pretty quiet. There was indeed a smell of damp in the corridor but this was not present in the room. The bathroom was clean and there was a heated towel rail and shower mat. The shower was a trial of cold and 9th circle of hell in the ladies bathroom. Check in time from 2pm is also an added bonus. I would recommend contacting the hosts ahead of time regarding check in, especially on the weekends as the cafe closes as 2pm on Saturday and is closed on Sundays. I had not contacted beforehand so was a little alarmed to arrive at 2pm to find no one there. Luckily I bumped into a member of staff before they left so I knew what room number I was in. All in all. It was a decent stay. I would stay again no issue.

Ideal for work please don’t be under the illusion you’re staying at the Ritz. This is somewhere to get your head down and get back to work the next day refreshed tea and coffee facilities and TV in the room are excellent staff are very helpful. Excellent menu in the café.

Affordable price. Perfect parking facility just in front of the motel. The staff made sure I was able to check in/access the room even though I arrived at 1am. Loved they had urinals. :) Meant no need to touch the toilet door or the flusher.

Staff are always amazing! So friendly, never had a problem here. Use it on many occasions while working.

Although I was sceptical at first not knowing what to expect. I was absolutely delighted with the room and the vast array of showering areas.
