"All you could need onsite and close to hand for a hotel motel stay close to town, clean, well sized and well appointed rooms, pub dining restaurant and cafe, great value, generous meals, gaming room, all with a friendly welcoming vibe. *We booked through Expedia and I booked a family room with 2 Queen beds, being for my self and a friend, when we arrived, we were given the key to a one bed room, I immediately let staff know the booking was for two Queen beds and it was all sorted happily and professionally. No dramas at all. I don’t think I’d use Expedia again, but I would definitely stay and highly recommend the Victory Hotel Motel."
