Thankyou Jessica, the Queens birthday weekend was a horrible bleak winter one , but we must wish Lizzie a happy birthday. I feel u cannot blame the Bamboo Motor Inn for internet issue's ( a long weekend ) the town is full of people, you had 3 persons connected to it just in your room alone, so i felt that it run pretty well, if you where so cold i would of happily gave you more blankets to snuggle too, You also forgot to mention that you had booked an extra 2 nights of accommodation, Given your circumstances i did not expect u to review me but Thankyou regards

Well placed motel
The motel is one of many on the strip - I counted four between the coach stop & this one - but the only other things was a church & a restaurant. The motel was good & the staff particularly helpful.

Great owners
The property is small but the room was clean and looked after by the owners. The owner was very welcoming and helpful and waited for us in spite of us arriving quite late. Neighbours were rather loud at night and you can here everything if Neighbours speak loudly at night without thinking of others. You can only hope you get sensible guests who care about Neighbours at night and do not talk loudly. Other than that it's a good stop for 1 or a couple of nights at a very reasonable price right in the centre of the town.

Likes- Location was very central close to eateries and the waterfront. We saw dolphins and seals on our morning walk! Spacious room and it had a microwave so we were clean and fed in no time! Heater and water pressure was also very good. Didn’t like - the hard beds
