Senator Motor Inn

This is the 3rd time we have stayed here and Karen has been very accommodating. We always get an upstairs unit overlooking the harbor. Because of the location it is quiet with very little traffic but within walking distance of fine restaurants and the city center. Rooms are always immaculate with everything you need. We will be back next time we're in Gizzy 👍😊

The Senator is in a great central location – if visiting you can walk to all the restaurants and to town. The owners were friendly and helpful, and it was so so clean. We loved it. The rooms upstairs are the best – great balconies with good views. Large room, good comfortable beds and great rooms. We had a look at these and would recommend them. Sadly, they have stairs to get to them and showers over the baths which I can’t do so I had the adapted room downstairs. A queen bed but still a large room and the shower and bathroom was one of he best set up ones I have seen – the shower rail actually came down low enough for the person seated to use and a separate holder for the shower so it could be low enough – amazing how many places don’t do this – it was excellent. And the water stayed in the shower area, so the floor was not slippery – another issue others don’t think about. Everything was so clean – the shower curtain was spotless and wide enough to stay away from the person in the shower but keep the rest of the large bathroom dry. Small things that matter if you are unsteady on your feet. Well done, Senator. Cleaning was offered every day and friendly – although we didn’t use it some days as lazy days still in the room – but even if we didn’t want a full clean, they would offer to replenish our tea bags etc and changed towels etc if we wanted. Cleaning obviously a strength in this motel. Location was great – for new year’s eve we could sit in our room and watch the fireworks. There was a small outside patio – but as this was virtually on the street, we didn’t tend to use it much – but sat inside with our doors open watching the world go by. The street was mostly quiet so usually not an issue with noise. I was worried about having a room at street level like this, but it felt safe and was good to see what was happening. Just a couple of nights were noisy with a few people– but that was not for long. Café next door and Restaurants are so close – walkable for me on crutches and when I took the wheelchair. Means we could all enjoy a drink when we went out. There is a washing machine and dryer for use and the air conditioning was very effective. Only negative is the shower water pressure was a little weak. I would recommend the motel – especially of you get the upstairs rooms.
