Everything you need for cooking in the kitchen. Lovely tidy and clean room. Friendly staff Blinds did not block out all of the light in the bedroom but it wasn't really an issue as we are early risers. Wifi is completely useless...you cannot use it to do little more than basic internet stuff. Don't expect to be able to watch any video content on the motel wifi. Sky TV did not work in our room
