Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Garden Motel was so easy to find. I was greeted kindly and immediately shown our room. The room was so clean! the sheets were so clean and the beds so comfortable. In addition, the towels were so fluffy. After having stayed in a few airbnb's that were less clean, it was a joy to stay at Garden motel. I will recommend it to my friends.

We enjoyed our stay and found the service friendly and obliging. The only thing we could find fault with was that we had no views and we felt a bit 'boxed in' For city accommodation, it was convenient. Thank you

It's a very good motel of its type i.e. inner city and reasonably priced. Being pet-friendly was a big plus. All over, it was a very pleasant stay and met all our expectations.
